    Habituation to Tinnitus Caused by Loud Music Through Headphones and Worsened by a Concert

    Just an update—my tinnitus is more or less the same, but I’ve become much more accustomed to everyday sounds and can tolerate semi-loud environments throughout most of the year without using earplugs. I still wear them when the volume reaches around 80 to 85 dB for safety, but I’m genuinely...

    Habituation to Tinnitus Caused by Loud Music Through Headphones and Worsened by a Concert

    Hey y'all. I'm 25 and have had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. I want to share my story with you. It began around age 10, when I frequently listened to music loudly through headphones. This wasn't great for my ears, and I recall a constant ringing, particularly noticeable in quieter...

    Thank you I hope so too. I have noticed small improvements. My tinnitus definitely has improved but the reactivity has started recently about a few weeks ago.

    Tinnitus/Hyperacusis After Years of Loud Music — 3+ Months of Hell on Earth

    I guess I just have the reactivity. It happens at low volumes too. It is not super loud though thankfully but it is noticeable for sure.

    I saw you're coding. I'm doing it as well and trying to get a job with it. I have had reactivity/distortions since a concert about four months ago and glad I am doing something that lets me stay at home haha. What do you code in?

    Tinnitus/Hyperacusis After Years of Loud Music — 3+ Months of Hell on Earth

    Regarding the distortions, could you go into more about what that was? For me, it's reactive in the sense that when I listen to some music or some sounds I hear a tone that shouldn't be there. Like how people say that when a fan or the AC is on it hovers above it. It's been about 4 months since...

    Also do note that most people you see that have distortion say they got it less than a year ago or so. Tinnitus has always been a thing so I assume most do heal eventually. There are people that have it for a long while but I think they're edge cases. I would give it at least 2 years for it to...

    I was reacting before but never noticed it due to protection but now I do. It has gotten about 20% better since a few weeks ago and I have hope it'll get all the way better or mostly within a year.

    I'm about 4 months in now from a noise-induced incident. The reaction started the day of the concert when the bass was so loud my ear reacted to it and became louder than the music itself. I stayed being attacked by it for about 10min with earplugs in until I moved away. I protected my hearing...
