@Vadimus, how are you doing? Any updates so far?
Cool, I have been thinking about giving it a try. Let us know if it works for you, I'll be the second one to test it. Good luck.
Oh God, I'm not alone. It's like you're talking about my symptoms. I don't know if it's a cervical issue and if a chiropractor can help. What do...
Partying in a couple of weeks. Any suggestions regarding earplugs? I'm gonna need strong ones.
I second that. Yes, it's just annoying. I totally feel what you say. I was like that a couple of months ago. I replied to your message to say...
I used to avoid restaurants. But I am going a couple of times each month now. It used to be painful at first but it's 99% OK now. No earplugs,...
Genuinely asking, how? Is there currently a reliable way to do so?
I would say, according to science, almost everyone over the age of 20 has some sort of hearing loss in the extended ranges. So, Dr.Shore has...
IMHO, people get hurt anyway, whether by unmet expectations or by tinnitus but positivity gives you enough motivation to continue for the time...
So happy for you. I hope your tinnitus keeps improving. Instead of thinking about how your tinnitus may change over the next 50 years, protect...
It doesn't do much for you? Maybe because you are not a mouse?
I have a quick question: if you can't be positive, why are you trying to make others feel negative? How does it help to be cautiously optimistic?...
I remember Dr. Shore said one of the participants who had his/her tinnitus worse attended a concert and that has nothing to do with the device.
I don't know what you should do but in my case overprotection made everything much much worse! Take care.
Noxacusis ~ 90% better. Nothing special done except exposing myself to everyday noise like public transportation.
I can't say I had, no.
Just came here to say that whenever you wonder if Dr. Shore's device works or not, remember that we have never had a device which is based on pure...
Thanks for sharing @Jazzer. I admire your optimism even though it's the only choice. Your story is a must read for everyone, not only tinnitus...
I believe it's the latter. What I did to get out of the hell was to start exposing myself to noise. At first it was painful, I did it after having...
I believe it does make a difference what we do because after 4.5 years I made a huge mistake by sitting in almost silence for months and that made...
I know what you mean. I have gone through the exact same thing. Nowadays I never wear hearing protection except for flights but the thing is I...
I would say tinnitus rarely goes away for those of us who are on this website for a long time because there are millions of people attending loud...
Don't fear, live life to the best of your ability for now, and only use hearing protection where noises are dangerous, otherwise you may (I say...
I clearly remember sitting in silence and reading books, I even closed my ears to not be distracted by other people's noise. When closed, I could...
What does Dr. Shore mean by no one experiences true silence? Does she mean that even those without tinnitus don't experience silence or what? Or...
I don't think the cinema will damage your hearing. I may be wrong though. Anyway, I will go to the cinema.
My Noxacusis has gone from several hours and days of pain to minutes and sometimes a couple of hours of pain. Exposure worked for me.
Just to give hope: my Hyperacusis is way better by pushing the limit. Still not confident to write a success story.
I have always hated these fu**ing headphones. I use them rarely for work and use my ANC in public transportation without music to dampen noise.
This too shall pass! I know it sounds crazy but life is temporary and will pass!
Just came to say there are lots of beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen here. May god bless you all and bring silence to your life. P.S: I am...
It can be a good sign if the tinnitus intensity changes but it's still too early to say anything. As I said, there is a perfect chance it will...
Hey PennyCat, Just wanted to say you're so beautiful. Sending you a big big virtual hug
Sorry for your daughter. It is more likely to be a result of the ear syringing than ear drops because even Ciprofloxacin, which is extremely...
Well, it's an emotional rollercoaster to be honest. Yes, my hyperacusis got worse with stress. My threshold dropped to almost 0 from stress and...
Well, regarding lingering pain, it used to linger there sometimes for a week but now I believe, since I started I pushing my limits, it is less...
Do you think it's related to the neuro modulation sessions you had?
That's so sad. So sorry for your loss.
I have always said do what works for you. I also have pain hyperacusis, not loudness, but my symptoms got worse from being in silence and stress....
I believe Melatonin had a positive effect on me.
Go see an ENT. There may be some causes that can be fixed fortunately.
TBH, there is still a good chance that the noise will go silent or lower after 7 months.
Lots of love Sarah, it will subside soon
Hi Sarah, Maybe magnesium helps? Try some turmeric as its anti inflatamation.Turmeric had negative impacts on some but I really doubt it was from...
@ErikaS Oh I see, I am super excited about your new treatment. I hope everything goes perfect for you. Yes, I know someone who is very...
The important thing is that he's doing well now. No one knows what exactly helps them! This was part of his story, not a joke! I hate it when...
Hi Erika, Have you talked about neurofeedback with your practitioner? There is a story about someone being cured with it in the success stories. I...
Of course you can. I promise you it gets better. I keep telling myself I can't continue like this by I can, I have to. Because I am stronger than...
It's too heartbreaking to see new people joining the community but so heartwarming to see their supportiveness
So happy for you. I hope you reach a point that you no longer even think of Dr. Shore's device that is on the way to the market. So, what helped...
I will keep my fingers crossed for you @ErikaS. I hope you find success in just the first sessions and get relief by the end of the treatment....
My audiologist always mentions Gentamicin as an example of an ototoxic antibiotic. He says taking it only one time is enough to destroy ears.
Only if people were more kind with each other. Here and there everyone is fighting. Let's be friends.

I wouldn't say that hyperacusis is always related to cochlear damage. We don't know! No one knows! Just throwing some papers saying that...
Thanks so much Michael. To be honest, I can't be positive about it as I can't see any meaning in someone telling me noise is not dangerous. But I...
I totally respect you and anyone suffering from this shit. I never wanted to minimize your suffering and say you won't get better because you...
I wouldn't say that. While silence works for some, exposure to safe sounds works for others. I have never improved from silence. Rather going out...
I hate to see the word placebo! If your tinnitus is lowered, why do you care if it it's from the placebo effect or from the real treatment? What...
I am so happy for your achievements. I wonder: I was living my life when it all started, one random morning I woke up with tinnitus and...
