Hi folks!
I have posted here a couple of weeks ago, when I first started suffering T and hyperacusis. Well, things have changed. My T wasn't that bad. It wer e the things inside my head that were much worse - in fact I was recently diagnosed with anxiety disorder.
As far as the T goes it did improve over time, to almost unnoticeable volume. I got confident, went out to meet friends, I've been to the movies, than to the parties (with earplugs of course). I thought I got my life back on track back to the point I didn't think about T at all.. I didn't play any gigs (I used to DJ in my hometown, that was the reason I got the T&H duo) However I got TOO confident. I wen't to a club with my brother. It was a great drum and bass party, I wore my plugs.. but that wasn;t enough. I think I could damage my ear further. It feels.. *strange*. I don't know how to describe it. I have been paying attention to my hearing most of the day, not sure if the hyperacusis returned. And than I had a REALLY loud spike. It lasted only a couple of seconds. But it was there.
I don't know if there really is something going on with the ears or is it my anxiety... I was planning to play live on stage soon. It is really a crushing experience to be unable to follow your passion :C I knew that it might have been too loud there, but I thougt "yeah, that's your anxiety speaking". Damn, I am angry at myself..
