Coming to Terms with Tinnitus by Acknowledging It Could Be Even Worse (Being Blind, Paralyzed, etc.)

[Jonty]

It's now been about two months of hell.

Currently I'm trying a new way to come to terms with this. Would I rather go blind (which happens to people everyday) or have tinnitus - definitely have tinnitus.

I have been riding motorbikes for thirty years, I have had many near misses and several bad accidents but only broken bones but could have been easily paralysed. Would I rather be paralysed or have tinnitus - definitely have tinnitus.

So I'm trying to get perspective. We all have bad stuff thrown at us but as bad as I'm feeling at present it could actually be even worse.

Good idea.
