Yesterday seemed good in comparison to most days... but back to the normal... who knows maybe there is hope.

18 months since I got H. Doing much better now. Able to go outside with ear plugs. Watched latest squid games season with decent volume. Still taking Nortriptyline. Although very low dosage 5 mg.

To me, it's not the sound that's worst. It's the physical sensation. Aching ears, burning, headache, fullness, the feeling something is broken.

@L along the way - an they are not just words. You never know that the futer holds. If can always get better

how old are you bro

Why does it feel like my head is between a bench vise? What a terrible feeling. I never really wanted to come back here. I was doing well. One stupid mistake when I just wanted to feel normal again. It's been 2 months already.

I now have fullness in both ears, dunno whats happening but it feels like I have earplugs in even if I dont have them in, it's some weird persistent sensation. Not sure :/

It sucks realizing that no matter how much I want this to be done... it never will be. Tinnitus doesn't take a vacation, and it doesn't care about yours.

The moment I start living a bit more, everything goes to hell

I'm getting weird headaches/tinnitus flare ups in the early morning. It's like my head is pulsating with sound. Hyperacusis has been flaring up too after a noisy day, although it's getting better by day 3

Shit

Had a conversation with a coworker that is VERY loud when she talks. I thought my Hyperacusis was better so i just took 2-3 steps back and had the conversation for around 1 hour without earplugs. Was so proud that i managed handle it decent! Today im paying with a pretty huge spike tho :/

Had movie night at my friends place and my ears are slightly worse again. The movie wasn't even loud! My ears haven't been this bad in many, many ( y )ears. Frustrating. But what am I gonna do?

how do you feel?

hello, i read on your profile that part of your tinnitus was caused by ototoxicity, and i was wondering which medication made it worse? And i was also wondering if antidepressants worsen your tinnitus? which medication do you take and which have you previously tried, and what kind of effect do they have on your tinnitus? thanks!
