Kinda regret going to a certain social gathering on christmas without earplugs, now my ears are killing me :(

well I guess it's ok. I'll try to be more careful next time. Now I at least know that less noise also spikes me...

I have no experience for this drug.

For sleep I would say melatonin 1-2mg is the least harmful and can be bought anywhere in NL. I am on nortryptiline for different reasons and I find it manageable. Everyone reacts different to each medicine. There is a big chance your tinnitus will stay as it is.

how do you deal with the fact you caused your tinnitus by taking medication im same with u i also have reactive t and nox
Varda
Yours was steroids right? That seems weird because steroid injections seems to be a treatment for hearing damage.
delta784
yes @Varda its methylprednisolone i am unlucky what i can tell i used that to treat my mild hyperacusis and ttts i got scared ent suggested to use from my arm i think that what caused the issue. I still believe if i took pill version that wasn't gonna affect my brain and ears that much %100

Hey - happy holidays to you and your family. Same thing happened to me yesterday. This disorder is insane. I am mostly isolated. Every time I do anything there is a price. Keep well my friend.

Merry Xmas everyone. Second half of 24's been a bit rough my side. Ears ain't getting better and that's where it's at. But somehow, I keep chiselling on through. If I can do it so can you. Big chin up for '25 to all my tinni pals :beeranimation:

Had lots of trouble sleeping last night. Both ears were making noises, idk if it was louder than normal or just more bothersome. Had to take melatonin and a Benadryl to sleep around 1:30 am. So tired this am. Merry Christmas Eve.

Still having headaches. I think my T switches sides depending on how I lay my head at night? Idk. Wake up to a headache every morning. Yesterday was a relatively normal T day, mostly in my right ear. This morning the left is hissing more. Praying it stays quiet and doesn't ruin Christmas break with the kids

I just wanna hide in my bed for 1 year. Im going thru a really though spike. Meet someone when i was in the garage so i took out the earplug in one ear to talk to her. Then from NOWHERE a dog comes like 6 meters away 10 seconds after i removed my earplug and barks like a god damn maniac. I just stood there for 10 seconds baffled and frozen in respons before i put my finger in my ear.

I hope it can still subside.
That's unfortunate that a dog came so unexpectedly barking like that, it's annoying when unexpected loud noises happen like that and you can't do anything about it :(
Wishing you the best for the recovery of this setback.

The only way to cope with T is to get your mind of it. But this is getting extremely difficult when your T it has become physical pain, with symptoms like burning ears, facial/skull sensations and migraines. Because I don't want to take painkillers every day I found ginger shots help me coping with the migraines.

Saw some of your posts, how's your T now? Got mine from Wellbutrin also.

Hey, thanks for reaching out! For me, it really depends on how emotionally relaxed or focused I am on something that excites me. When I'm in a good headspace, my tinnitus stays at a manageable 3-4/10, more of a mild annoyance. But if I'm stressed or distracted, it can spike to 8-9/10. It's all about where my energy and attention are at the time.

Last night was one of the worst. The craziest noises to date. Like a firework show of tinnitus in my ears.

Today has been pretty normal. Hoping and praying it stays this way or better yet gets better and goes away soon.

5.5 months in. Still no sleep, no focus and suicidal ideation. Just because of morons who cranked speakers where even with hearing protection, it was not enough. I can't deal with this much longer I feel.

My tinnitus has been on a roller coaster ride recently… it was almost nonexistent for a lot of the day. It's cranking now though!

Had a good run and was doing well... but this disorder seems to always get you. Ears are sensitive again and new sound in my right ear when I speak. My fault I got complacent. I hope this is just a spike and will improve.

Is it possible to not get worse? Is it possible to live being carful around noise all the time. Why do some people have T and can go to concerts. The frustration is insane.
Tryn2BHopeful
Tbh I was doing better. Sound tolerance was much improved with less bad days and more ok ones. Went to my daughter's orchestra concert and it seemed ok until a couple days later. Having back and forth days every since along with distortion to loud and sharp sounds in my right ear. I am sad to be back but support from non sufferers is impossible
