Has anyone had any luck with adding vitamin D3, Taurine, Lipoflavonoid, or NAC to their daily regimen? If so, how long to take effect for a positive result?

Can hyperacusis ever recede or go away? Anyone with experience here?
Can someone tell me the reason why am i living like a cockroach instead of being happy all the time? And what's the point of living like this if the end is already known?
Do you guys have much experience treating ADHD pharmaceutically? Any clear no-goes with T et cetera in mind?

@Cmspgran Interesting. How much Pregabalin do you use? The Gabapentin certainly takes some focus off my condition and reduces stress. When did you drop the Gabapentin? Was the combo still effective over time? I advise you to make an appointment with the GP, tell them you are really struggling, what helps and be candid. You obviously have an understanding GP and honesty is the way forward.
The first time I used Gabapentin, i bought it online. I am not advising you to do this of course.

Hello! Im about 7 weeks in from the onset of Tinnitus and Hyperacusis. Yesterday was a "good" day for me and I was able to distract with "ocean sounds" on my earbuds at a level of 12 on the volume. Today is much louder tinnitus and not a good day at all and have to turn my ocean sounds to a volume of 30 to even compete with the ratio of tinnitus to ocean sounds yesterday. How could it be that yesterday my tinnitus was "acceptable" and today much louder? I was happy that it was a sign of my tinnitus subsiding, but today I am wondering? Im not sure what to do some days its very loud, leaving me confused, scatterbrained, sad, and my nerves shot. Any advice on how to combat this tinnitus thing? Any advice is much appreciated - thank you all so much!
I'm no stranger to this condition worsening. I suspect some of the long haulers here are in the same boat. Like clockwork, new/worse symptoms every 2-3 months for me. But I can deal. This recent worsening though. Brutal. Metal wine glass humming on top of *everything*. No rhyme or reason. Just started out of nowhere.
Anyway how ya'll doin. I hate it here.

Low humming has been getting worse as of late... no idea why. T seems louder in general most days. I keep praying it will get better again... but this time around everything is different for better or worse.
@Jan64 ben jij nog actief hier ..ik had t via de thread geprobeerd maar ik probeer t hier nog een x
I went to mall for dinner with my girlfriend and her sisters which was around marina it was atleast a good day this saturday (thanks to 0.5 clonazepam of course) almost 0 pain i wasn't aware of my tinnitus most of the day since i was outside.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
Waking up at 2:00 am with blaring hissing in my left ear is getting old. I will be getting another CT scan of my temporal bone next Tuesday.
sometimes i hit stuff bcos im mad at T and then it makes a bang and spikes T lol 
I can adapt to tinnitus, but with severe hearing loss is I didn't expect to get, will the second shot save me or no effect? Despite 3-week onset, will there be improvement despite my odds is 1/3? What if I live like this forever? What if it really does work? If it really does work, I hope I can enjoy hobbies again like normal. No way I'm give up my hearing that easily.
And after a horrible few days I come to my once a month easily manageable morning buzz day (natural hormone fluctuations I guess) where I sleep like the before times and my pain and pressure settles for a few hours... I could easily live a normal happy life and feel very much like my old self, until the crushing realisation if I did I'd just end up without these brief reprieves.
I bizarrely find my self having to keep them secret too because everyone's positivity bias creeps in and they assume it's getting better.

A lot of screen time definitely increases my tinnitus symptoms.
Is there any long term medication i can take for my panic attacks and anxiety im scared i might harm myself (jumping out from my window etc.) i am fairly suicidal can anyone help me please?
A loud metallic bang out of nowhere as I was waiting for the train. Even though I was wearing double hearing protection, the incoming spike is sure to be torture. There's no escape from this cycle of agony.
When i yawn i hear metallic sound in my right ear what is it ? i have since 10 months
Dear @billie48, I hope you are doing well. I recently cought Covid again and once more it gave me a big spike and this time I need to adjust a bit more, especially regarding my sleep. There's something I'm wondering about your sleep routine. You have mentioned to me before that you use background noise (a sound machine I believe) for sleeping, in a reply to another user you also mentioned that you can also fall asleep without any background noise. So I'm mostly wondering, even with your long-term habituation to loud tinnitus, do you get more refreshing sleep or have a somewhat easier time to fall asleep with background noise? Thank you so much for your reply.
Just cannot be fucked with the spikes, aches, pains and sensations from something as simple as a normal volume conversation when I already spend all day indoors, it's been over a year, can't live a normal life I consider enjoyable or worthwhile, not interested at this point... where this idea we have to keep going at all costs came from is beyond me.
saw an audiologist today, went just as i expected. "normal hearing", declined tympanometry test, saw another doctor and i have no infection in my right ear anymore so i'm at a loss on why it's been bothering me. such a shame.
