Initial Causation:
Ruptured eardrum in September 2018.
November 2018 performed research on tinnitus vowed to change my diet, avoid loud noises and avoid nootropics as there is no cure for tinnitus and everything has side effects.
December 2018 visited an ENT who performed a Webber test and hearing test stating that he was sure the tinnitus was a temporary condition as it was a simple rupture.
Early January 2019:
On Doctors orders gave my pet bird away to a family friend and developed hyperacusis hence I asked my parents to be quite around the house.
They refused this made me feel isolated and I felt an urgency to fix the problem before it gets worse.
So I ordered stuff from a naturopath.
Created a drug monitoring system where I would start the drug for 4 days, stop, test the frequency range, and test the Tinnitus Loudness.
Late January 2019:
I started to swear each time a loud car passed my window. Because of this I was kicked out of home.
I stayed with my grandparents who became annoyed that I was watching TV all day.
Please know I was a university student at this time on semester break.
They also stated on multiple occasions that my condition was bullshit.
Early February 2019:
Moved back to my parents house who kicked me out again for swearing and stated that I needed to live with my narcissistic father from this point forward.
Mid February 2019:
I had locked myself in the upstairs room and was feeling isolated during my time of grief.
This resulted in me researching a couple of more drugs NAC, Acetyl L Carnitine, and Sarcosine.
The Sarcosine as it was in a magazine by the American Tinnitus Association and people had reported success with Glycine.
Please understand that at this point my brain was in panic mode and was no thinking logically.
In early March 2019:
My father had kicked me out of his home for taking his keys (long story) but no one was right in this situation.
Returned back home to a mum who still had not forgiven me for swearing in the house so I stayed at a hotel.
The next day I bought some flowers and was going to apologise to my mum, when I arrived I saw the Sarcosine.
Because I was not sure if my mum would forgive. me and my brain was tired from all the shit that was going on around me I decided against doing further research on the drug.
This was despite my inner voice begging me to do more research.
Luckily, I was allowed back at my parents home.
But because of the previous experience I was scared about being kicked out so my mind was focusing on that issue instead of the drug protocols.
Early April:
Decided to look up Sarcosine… Shit the drug is extremely excitotoxic which would explain the pulsatile tinnitus.
Went back to the ENT asymmetrical hearing loss and webber test localised to the right ear.
The tinnitus is so loud that on multiple occasions I have cried, been admitted to a mental hospital, and have tried killing myself.
Loud as no longer able to block over traffic.
Guess I am part of the permanent (until death) tinnitus club even sadder is that the original tinnitus is gone.
Even the psychologist I see told my family they needed cure their behaviour to which they responded "we will not be manipulated".
So not a real supportive family.
