@Farida yeaaaa I’m sure I will. The initial anxiety of a spike is always annoying
A bit of a spike from a wedding I attended, I was doing so well. Pray that I can get back to my normal in the next few days
Thanks Daniel!
Not sure if it’s just a good day but I’ve been at a 1/10 for T all day :)
I've checked out the posts I could find in here but I was searching for something more specific I guess. I know it's a hard ask since everyone is...
just a bump
Hi everyone. I've been struggling with acoustic trauma induced tinnitus now for almost 3 years and I'm at a point where it's pretty livable for...
I passed my 2 year mark a month back, still have T. Doesn’t rule my life anymore, will never stop missing headphones haha
Going in a for a hearing test but the virus chaos stopped my appointment :’( Good time to stay away from noise tho
I like leaving myself personal updates here. Doing ok, no longer get ear pain, just low T
@Bill Bauer sorry I didn’t see your message, I’m pretty good! I’ve habituated
@Auron stopped using them cold turkey after getting T
I really miss headphones :(
Hello TT, hope everyone is doing ok. Take care of yourselves.
having less random pains when exposed to too much loud noise. Still have earplugs but it’s nice to not have to suffer if Im not fast enough.
Hello, checking in again. Ive been having a problem where 1 ear canal feels hot & hurts sometimes. Normally it’s on days when T is louder
Pretty shitty of T to get louder when you’re stressed, bc of course it would. thanks T
I plan to stick around here as long as I have it. Hope I can write a success story someday
I want to say I can only hear the T now in a quiet room! Knock on wood but the improvement feels so good
Anniversary with T was yesterday. I tried to do something fun instead of thinking about it. Hopefully by next May 19th it’ll be a whisper
My job’s new office has an air system that’s louder than my T, it’s the little things lol
Doing alright lately, quieter. almost time for my first tinnitus anniversary :’T
If I can still hear ringing I just ramp up the difficulty and keep going lol
Playing video games is one of the only ways I can fully ignore the tinnitus. It takes almost my full attention and it’s kind of soothing.
Small update: some days I don’t notice it, some days I hyper-focus on it. Finally can fall asleep without a noise in the bg to distract me
Happy New Years y’all, take care of yourselves please
It’s only been 6 months by now but I’m still chugging along ok, hope for the best in all of y’all
Spike?? Ok T I thought we were chill
Now four months in, pissed I have this in the first place but what can ya do
I still have ringing, it’s quiet now but I’m no longer at the point where I obsess over it. I expect it to fade so here’s hoping!
Finally feeling ok
Tinnitus has become quiet hissing/crackling in the past week. Hopefully some sort of hurdle has been reached
I think I’m doing ok habituating, I come on here less but still check in on some of you :)
Was accustomed to a certain low hissing but randomly got a new ringing noise. Noooot happy about it.
I will say that about two days later it has quieted down to its normal hissing. I even took multiple flights between these two days (with ear...
@Davey126 That's pretty comforting to hear. My anxiety is definitely ramped up so hopefully it’s mostly that right now. I’ll see how it is in the...
@attheedgeofscience I feel you and my fault and all that but not helpful after the fact.
So I ran into a huge hurdle today where my car got stuck on the side of a busy road and I was outside fixing it so I could make it home. There was...
Decreasing in volume, ear fullness sticking around
Your T experience sounds very similar to mine minus the hearing loss. Mine was so loud in the beginning that looking back after my first month I...
How you doin bud?
Congrats! I hope the trend continues and you can have your deserved break
Well I don’t have speakers but I guess it’s time to invest. also dude I know you’re suffering and I really do feel for you but maybe don’t format...
Well nothing really bad happened, too nervous to listen loudly
sorry bud if this sounded like a humble brag
Tinnitus is pretty quiet today, almost tempted to throw on the headphones
Got a message that the work fire alarm went off, glad I worked from home today lol
Boy I miss caffeine
TMJ is strange (I have it yay) you can have the popping symptoms and not have it be a problem for you. There’s a good chance the muscles around...
I hope so, I’m taking T improvement with a grain of salt but here’s hopin’
My sound has been replaced, more hissy. Less loud but still very much ‘there’.
I feel I’m hearing a new sound, not as high pitched as before
Neutron
Thanks guys for the welcome, Fish I understand why you say that about measuring time but I really do it decreases in volume a bit. It’s louder...
Hello @Bill Bauer it’s actually been only the 2 weeks. After the initial dip in volume I haven’t noticed a change unless I try my hardest to not...
I’ve been lurking around on this site for the past few days and I felt it would be some comfort to at least introduce myself and accept this part...
