Hate how sensitive I've gotten to cars when they hit the brake, it's this loud squeal and today one stopped right next to me as I passed by.
@Kiyomi I know it's really difficult right now in these early months, and there isn't anything that can be said or done to make it better, but...
@Utdmad89 Thanks mate, I've had some setbacks in those two years too so I hope I will, nothing's a given with hearing issues. I hope you're doing...
@Kiyomi It's not your fault. There aren't enough people out there warning others about the dangers of sounds and headsets until it's too late and...
At least better than I was two years ago. I have distortions in a high frequency which are still around but they've gotten a little better over...
I know that feeling Kiyomi. The early months are absolute hell, I was in a very dark place too when I started experiencing distortions and sound...
Welcome to the club. There's actually a very strong link between autism and tinnitus, we're far more sensitive to sounds and it seems easier to...
Hope you've been well Luchia, take it easy
I'm only now realizing this is what I heard quite a while ago (before onset dysacusis) working delivery in a certain neighborhood when I walked...
Take it easy Penny, breakups are rough especially with everything else you're dealing with. But you're going to be alright.
Isn't that the truth. I can only assume most of us have tried to explain our situation to our ENT; mine was absolutely clueless haha. I tried to...
I guess it's better to wait it out patiently and rely on neuroplasticity than experiment with medication that might only make things far worse,...
Two years ago, dealing with onset tinnitus and dysacusis I never thought I'd enjoy music or games again but I slowly got there again.
It's still around for me after two years too, but it's at least calmed down a bit to the point I don't always notice it everywhere. Still wish it...
Hey Kiyomi. I also have reactive distortions, developed them right at onset. I had a very difficult time with it and listening to sounds was hard,...
@Karolina 2-3 months in is still pretty early Karolina, there's a lot of time to heal. I know that doesn't feel that way right now but you have to...
I know it's scary, especially in the early onset days. I was extremely anxious of sounds and I couldn't stand the sound of the refrigerator or my...
Hey Marshall, do you still get distortions or did it end up going away for you?
I always call it existing more than living at this point.
@HearingHell Sorry to hear you're also dealing with dysacusis, it's a hearing issue I never knew even existed until I got it but I guess that goes...
Distortion really sucks, a lot of music with that one high note is ruined now thanks to sudden random hearing loss, it's been nearly two years...
@xLuchiaaa I hope the treatment goes well Luchia! Definitely familiar with jaw and neck pains, I hope you can get the needed help for it. Birthday...
@xLuchiaaa Sorry to hear you're in pain Luchia, is there anything you can get done for it? I hope the T isnt too bad lately. I'm doing okay,...
Hey Luchia, just wanted to check in. Hope you've been well lately :)
Glad the fireworks hell is over, the reactivity wasnt exactly pleasant. Hope everyone managed through the night.
Dreading the fireworks again, with dysacusis it's reactive squeals one after another. Never liked fireworks before but now it's even worse.
Belated happy birthday! Hope you've been doing well :)
Merry Christmas folks! I hope everyone's doing alright and able to enjoy the holidays.
Improvement :) It takes time but things will slowly get a little better.
Same here, they've been randomly setting off fireworks for weeks. I hated them before I had hearing issues and even more now lol
Dentist is always nerve wracking for us with the high frequency ultrasonics, I can't stand the noise at all but there never seems to be any damage...
Is there nothing that can be done for the pain? I know you're suffering Marina, I really hope things will improve.
@beefling It makes no sense at all, dysacusis is a riot isnt it? I've had it for about a year and a half now and I'm wondering if it'll go away at...
Distortion seems a little worse and more noticeable lately. Not sure how and why it worsens when I didn't do anything to make it worse.
Happy birthday Luchia! I know you're going through a difficult time right now, but try to make the most of today and I hope you can look back on...
@xLuchiaaa Does that help? I usually just wait it out, it'll pass, thanks Luchia :) And well, I thought about that a lot too but we can't expect...
I know how that feels, my parents or anyone else I know don't understand it either so I can't really talk about it to anyone outside of sites like...
Hey Luchia, how are you holding up? Hope you're doing alright.
Stress and anxiety will always make it worse by itself, but I get it. It's only once we give it a unwanted place in our lives and accept that it's...
Sorry to hear that didn't help, @martap. Has there been any change or improvement in the sounds since it's been over a year by now?
There's really no avoiding the bad news anywhere. Social media, it's just all negativity.
@brixenbrixen That's great brixen! Good to hear from you again, are you doing okay lately?
Try to hang in there Luchia, I know it's hard early on. It takes months to a year+ to start seeing improvement with this. Either the tone will...
I'm sorry Sointu, my ENT insisted on doing microsuction too. I hope your spike goes down soon. :(
Stress, fear and exhaustion can all make it worse for a while. You have to try and give yourself some time to rest and not focus too much on the...
I'm doing okay, all things considered. I feel like the only thing that's improved after a year and a half is my reaction to distortions on top of...
@xLuchiaaa Better now, thanks Luchia :) It was more the outside that hurt. Having hooikoorts doesnt help either lol. Are you holding up alright?
Ears are painful and red, especially the right one. Think it's an ear infection, definitely the last thing I want right now :<
Not for my own voice no, and very rarely when others speak. But usually it's most noticeable in anything else. On top of voices on TV, music,...
Did the distortion go away for you entirely then? We both came here at around the same time during the onset of tinnitus and distortions, and I...
Same here. It might be seasonal depression since it's only around winter where I feel bothered by it. I'm usually fine on my own doing things in...
@xLuchiaaa I don't think it was ever muffled no, but everything sounded louder and more painful. Luckily that didnt last long, I think I was close...
Does kind of feel that way. I feel like I was bothered by it less in summer.
Heartbreaking. It's always terrible to lose members this way. I wondered what happened to him for a while and was hoping his situation had...
Glad to hear it man. If you end up leaving entirely, I hope you'll stay fine and won't have any more hearing issues in the future :)
@xLuchiaaa The hearing test seemed mostly normal, only worse hearing in one ear. But the hearing loss I have doesnt show up on the graph, it's a...
@xLuchiaaa Hanging in there :) T is pretty low but I have distortions in one high frequency, had it for over a year now since it started. I...
@Mo8409 Glad to hear it! And Happy Halloween :) I wish we officially celebrated it over here but only a handful of people actually decorate their...
Hope it went well, how are you feeling?
Hey Luchia, saw you're Dutch too :) Glad the H is lessening, that's a good start.
