Tie him down to a chair and blast both of his ears with an air horn. Call him a baby when he gets debilitating tinnitus.

He didn't have a spike, he had 13. Each caused by the same procedure. He went from mild/moderate to severe/catastrophic. Comments like yours...

Comments like these aggravate me to no end. Its like someone with a missing finger telling a paraplegic that everything will be ok and that he has...

If people with healthy legs go for a run, nothing will happen. But someone with damaged leg could permanently make it worse. This is why it's so...

I'm sick of the truth. Thank you @Greg Sacramento for posting something positive.

That's just very high cope and completely in black and white. If I said the exact same thing towards someone strapped to a bomb with an unknown...

If my tinnitus dropped to mild I'd be the happiest man alive. Well maybe not happy since I'd still have PTSD because of what this shit has done to...

It's funny everytime I mention suffering on the internet someone always one ups me. Out of respect I'd take your word for it though. You talk...

Your perspective is that of a person whose had it easy their whole life, who has suddenly been hit with something difficult. So you've come up...

So even you haven't accepted your lullaby since you're still fighting it, so why do you advise others to? Accept means to accept your fate, not to...

That would be fine if it stayed the same. We all know it gradually gets worse. As you get older, it's guaranteed to get worse. You can't accept...

I was listening to an old soundtrack I used to listen to a lot a year or so back, there are higher pitched tones in the background that added a...

It seems very straight-forward, but I got further hearing loss and worse tinnitus after using a 100 dB hedge trimmer with over ear and in-ear...

Anyone else also get tinnitus even in their dreams all the time? I have no escape.

Masking for me means the tinnitus will never drop in volume. If I can't tolerate my tinnitus then I turn on masking, which masks half the sounds....

Got any friends you can spend time with? I know you feel the opposite, but best thing during a break up is not being alone. Especially with the...

I think there's multiple factors. One leading one I have about this is that there is your baseline tinnitus, and then your maximum tinnitus and...

No because I have severe depression as a result of tinnitus and ejaculating doesn't feel that good anymore.

I just had a diagnosis of diabetes and I'm not even fat. I'm so fucking done, I can't imagine knowing I had Parkinson's.

Mine is louder in the morning 70% of the time.

Anyone did that to me... all I'm saying is they better have life insurance.

Max post limit? Or has this thread died?

If it feels too loud move.

Why would you want to put that shit in your ear man. Just stick with olive oil.

A shower blast into your ear can be pretty loud. If you want to clean your ears under the shower aim it under a single stream. I doubt any...

I could be wrong and confused him with another user. He never denied it the last time I called him out on it.

Did you honestly expect me to go through every quote and to see is they replied with followups and cross reference the names? Stop expecting...

I meant to say isn't.

You can give me 10000000 quotes of people's experiences of low volumes making tinnitus worse and I take it with a grain of salt, because I...

Now clubbing is a different story. Bass better penetrates through ear protection. Most clubs are around high 90s and 100+ dB. There is no way to...

I don't know exactly what you're trying to say. At 87 decibels if you use earplugs and good quality over ear muffs you could spend 100 years in...

Does your tinnitus fluctuate? Has it ever become bearable in the past 6 months? That's the only thing that keeps me from going insane. I have the...

I have no clue how loud a HARLEY Ultra Classic is.

Divorce.

There is no way on earth that a split second of 85dB will damage your hearing. It would have to be at least 110dB. What you're suffering from is...

I stand by my comment that the cure for cancer will come before balding, and that before hearing loss. However, accidents happen all the time. So...

Honestly she sound pretty dumb or is mentally ill. Nothing hard about plugging your ears to check if its external.

When I force myself to listen to my tinnitus it does decrease in intensity I've noticed. But most days I don't have that strength.

After two months? It will probably always be there but will lower enough to the point of barely hearing it if you protect your ears for the rest...

Actually it's a scientific fact that the moon kills hair cells in the cochlea. Basically when the sun shines on earth radiation from the sun is...

I just listen to movie and game soundtracks. Your parents surely can't disapprove of that. Just lay off the rap. [MEDIA]

Dude I'm sorry but you are absolutely full of shit and your advice is doing harm. Science is not on our side. Get this straight. Theoreticals are...

Yes and 100 dB is apparently harmless for 15 minutes. Want to try it?

Its a simple choice for me and anyone with more than mild tinnitus. Would I take cisplatin to save my life if I had testicular cancer? Hell no....

These assumptions are for people with normal hearing. If someone already has damaged hair cells then it's a different conversation. Just don't...

Aspirin is extremely ototoxic. Just like many chemo drugs and certain antibiotics. The damage done is probably permanent (your tinnitus will calm...

It is more complicated than I thought. I guess the lesson learned is you cant trust lab conditions. In the end, never use ear protection to have...

Such horrible advice. It's like telling a lung cancer patient it's ok to smoke as long as they have quality filters.

That's not how it works: https://www.sensear.com/blog/noise-reduction-rating-nrr-a-beginners-guide You will be looking at a maximum of 20 dB...

I'll stop you there. The answer is don't do it. No amount of ear protection will stop damage from guns, it only minimizes it. If you already have...

Wish I could have that mindset, I just cant. Im too logical. There's no room for hope in my mind. Only reality. Explains why I started questioning...

Have you been in a relationship before?

High IQ post.

Except out of all of that tinnitus is the most that people don't care about and gets in the way of the others enjoyment. None of those would...

I haven't seen anyone in 3 years.

If it's too loud you can ask them to turn it down. But they won't really care unless you have a good relationship with them. I guess mentioning...

I said yes but it depends. Most places won't get too dangerous with earplugs (from my experince in the UK). If you have a good relationship with...

So it's not just me. This condition is so fucking confusing.

Pete just a tip from someone who is planning on suicide. You gotta accept it. Accept the tinnitus. Accept death. You'll be able to function then....
