I pray to Jesus for you and all of us. He exists. No doubt. I believe in habituation to the noise if you don’t have relative T. Stay strong my friend.

Same thing with my MIL. Anytime her cell or house phones ring, I reflectively stick my fingers in my ears. TV always blasting too. Then again she's 92.

@Jammer - when I hear others do what we need to do I think to myself - how are we supposed to live like this. It’s crazy. There is enough stress in life. I can’t get over this!

my least favorite part, but i alwas just tell myself itll go away like it always does

So sorry. I had a massive worsening a few days ago. You can’t avoid loud noises if you go outside. It’s always something. It’s funny how when it gets worse your previous tone always seems like it was a walk in the park.

@4Grace Ive seen so many people improve in the last 3 1/2 years it's hard to imagine you not catching a break at some point. It just seems to take so fucking long for some people. I'm sorry you have to deal with pain hyperacusis brother.

@BrOKeN_1 - I feel like that ship has sailed. Due to the nature of my T. Nerve related. I always had hope that my nerves would heal. Now it’s just beyond words. I am not stretching the truth when I say it gets worse every day. It’s so loud and painful.

Did you manage to get some sleep?

@ZFire I managed about 5 today actually. Thanks for asking. Sometime you just have to be awake for 48hrs I guess. I hope your doing well today yourself.

@BrOKeN_1 glad you were able to get some rest at least.

Been doing well these past few days. Thanks for checkin in. :)

I hate allergy season too..

Sounds like my days... /sigh

Had I known this would be my life, growing up, I would have taken matters into my own hands

This video is what i needed today. (Check Volume) https://youtu.be/CF-iDi_j93c?si=fKCbOuxqI4pV828-this

This video hit home.

It’s like every victory is short lived.

How did it go?

Kept the plugs in all night and stayed away from the speakers. Girls had fun!

Yep…I know that feeling all too well!

The irony of life... best day I've had in well over a year and covid takes me out the very next day! Feels like I've been hit by a car. :(

Aw heck. I’m hearing blood flow in my right ear when my head is at different angles. Just another nuisance to the list :P

I love minecraft! I’ve been playing it every day for like 2 months now :P It’s a good distraction

Garbage. Don't.

I haven't heard anything good about it on these forums, but honestly I haven't heard much good about anything on these forums and really don't expect to. I thought about trying a 9V battery and random noise JK

@Tryn2BHopeful Maybe if we try taking a tazer to the head something might get reset! Lol

I understand.

Its amazing what we can endure. Kind of … Yes. As I type this I am in my basement while my daughter is having her 8th break down of the day. Yelling and screaming for 15 min. I’m on life level 11 out of 10.

@SarahMLFlemmer thank you.. it can be utterly overwhelming at times but you know that. I hope you have better days real soon. *hugs*

You should get a cat. Then the first thing you'll focus on the in the morning, is the annoying thing walking all over you and bothering you to feed it. =D

@BrOKeN_1 rinse and repeat! ❤️ We're gonna make it!

Every time I walk into the gas station that happens to me. Goes away immediately after I walk out. It's wierd

@SharonBell I have TMJ. Same symptoms. Aggravates tinnitus big time. I am a big clencher. It can change the nature and frequency of Tinnitus. Getting a night guard. I would look into it.

Hyperacusis basically means your are oversensitive to ("everyday") sounds. Your tolerance of sound levels are not as they should be. It could be loudness h, pain h, or both, and a lot in between this... I suggest you do some searches on the forum about it @SharonBell to get more insight.

Hey @SharonBell I think you are posting inside my profile. Every time you post it is tagging me. There are others here that may have alot better advice. Especially for hyperacusis.

Ok thanks.

I'm here. Been doing okay this week.

Your T hasn’t been bad? Mine has been terrible the same as usual.

My T is I say a 7/10 but I'm not crying all day everyday this week so that's a win.
