Hey Tia, I remember you. I actually randomly thought about you a couple of months ago. Your last two years sound incredibly impressive - I can't...
I think you should be interviewed, Once! Would love to hear your story.
I loved this episode. I don't usually listen to the podcast as a lot of the episodes are research-based and would probably go over my head, just...
I have to respectfully disagree re traumatising children. Ill mental health is not something you can take off like a hat when in the presence of...
I'd like to know what you mean by it as well, @DaveFromChicago. There is nothing wrong with seeking help when you are distressed. It isn't 'acting...
Fleeting tinnitus can last for a really long time; nothing to worry about. See thread below for examples - someone else described it as the ear...
@Eleanor89, @Athens: Hi guys, It didn't take very long for my hyperacusis to settle; about two months in total. I've had it very mildly since...
Yes, the woman with the headset is their Clinical Audiologist. Is there a reason why you assumed she couldn't be?
I take it that means it didn't spike it. I ask because this thread has so far implied that anyone with tinnitus wanting to get a dog (or have a...
And your tinnitus was fine/not fine when the dogs barked?
This thread is shocking, I'm really sorry @Ludvik. When people are suffering they often lash out and it is not a reflection on you. I don't know...
Stop taking your anger out on fellow sufferers.
Many resort to personal attacks when they don't like what someone else is saying. It's important to have the courage to say it anyway.
It was brought on by extreme stress, in my case.
@Farida - I had an ocular migraine once (very strange experience!), and I have never had one since. I hope this helps reassure you.
All kinds of sounds, but not currently high pitched. Don't think the tinnitus pitch has any significance re cause etc, but there are others who...
ENT can't find anything wrong. MRI fine. I got it a couple of days after tinnitus, and someone suggested to me that it was probably caused by the...
Same!
Good for you, Steph! (y) I'm too much of a :couchpotato: to do exercise :p
So sorry to hear about your parent's behaviour, that must be really distressing. I hope all is OK now. Crying will not hurt your ears - it's...
That is AMAZING news, @aot! So pleased for you. Remember these really quiet times if/when you are having a spike. It's proof that it can get there.
There are actually three options, and the third is the most likely :) Any new sounds have always gone away, for me. My longest spike was about 5...
Wow, Bette Midler! That must have been such an honour to get to play for her. How did she sound? Bet her voice blew everyone away back then,...
Fascinating work, Daniel. I interpret it as a depiction of rape. Very disturbing.
What a dumb comment, lol.
Sorry to hear this, Aura. Improvement is very rarely linear, and it's really common to have temporary 'setbacks' with tinnitus - especially in...
@Steph1710 - he's probably the greatest player of all time, and he's going back to Man U, where he started out, at 36 years of age. Basically...
Amazing - he's coming home :)
Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, @Farida. My Dad also got severe COVID at the start of the year and was rushed to hospital unable to breathe -...
Yeah, thought you might.
Those are beautiful, @Juan! Below is - I *believe* - the Torse de Clotho, Camille Claudel. Camille was institutionalised by her brother at a...

@aot - are you coming with me and @Christiaan to The Hague? :)
Well, from the video footage, Matt Hancock does look like he's good with his hands :P :P Ugh, seriously I hate those Eton toffs! I can't believe...
I'm a secret Tory voter and I love Trump :P Just kidding, fellow liberal ;) Yes, the murals look fab! We're also going to the Titanic museum,...
Good for you! What worked for me: Cut down on sugar, definitely! Don't buy anything 'low fat' as it will likely be full of sugar to improve the...
Its opposite is sleepwalking; the mechanism that makes us immobile has stopped working, but we haven't woken up.
I used to get it all the time. I would force myself to relax, and not try to move. Then it would wear off quite quickly. It happens because the...
Haha, I actually do like old prisons; I'm visiting one in Belfast in a couple of weeks :) I just looked up Scallywags and it looks mad in there!...
Good - I insist you come here :) You will never want to leave :P I have always wanted to visit the Hague - what a cool place to live! It's...
Peachy is probably the wrong word for it, lol. Long story. But I'm OK. Yes, you must! Especially if you have never been to Bristol before - we...
@Christiaan You are so sweet - thank you! I had no idea I was witty, lol - I feel like I'm a bit of a serious Susan on here a lot of the time :P...
Great thread Michael, really interesting to read through.
I love the thread idea, also. It's fascinating to see everyone's favourite pieces. Good job :)
I'm jealous - what a life! Hanging out with Ron Howard - amazing!! If you can share his name, it would be cool to look him up. No worries if not....
Ed, I'm so sorry. He sounds like a fascinating man. Reading this thread makes me feel so powerless, because I want to help everyone so badly. But...

Mine did, after about 6 months.
My ears pop every time I swallow. I was also afraid to fly at first, but it turns out I was fine. It doesn't hurt my ears one bit. I used...
Sorry to hear all this, @aot, although I'm pleased that you were experiencing improvements prior to that! Improvement never seems to be linear for...
I'm so sorry to hear that @Shera. Much love to you and your family.
Awful. Apparently, Romania (such a beautiful country, btw) has the EUs lowest spending on healthcare, and is also the lowest ranked on...
I'm British, and 30. Everyone in Britain knows it's a failing system, but the majority understand that this is because it is underfunded by a...
Yes, it can :)
You are not a coward. I don't know what to say, apart from that you are a brilliant mind and obviously a lovely person, and it's not fair. And...
:eek: :eek: :eek: What's your secret?? I thought 30, max! Hope your leg gets better soon.
I need her in my life! She looks like a little old lady with those eyebrows - sooo adorable. Tell your parents I'll look after her if they like!...
[ATTACH] OMG, is she yours? What breed?
That, so far, has turned out to be wrong. So now they are completely directionless, unable to tell what their base actually wants. Many people...
@Christiaan I do know what you mean :) That's a pretty rare breed of politician, especially on the left! In my opinion: Out of step, and just...
