    So essentially, you are not interested in having an intelligent debate and are just looking for reasons to insult people. You have barely acknowledged any of the arguments others have made, probably because you do not have any rebuttals to them.

    Maybe I've Had Hyperacusis This Whole Time?

    Thanks for the insight! When it comes to Magnesium, is there a specific type that may be more beneficial for recovery? I've heard that Magnesium glycinate is good for ear-related issues, so I was wondering if it might help with this particular issue.

    2024 US Presidential Election

    What do you want me to say? That protests are in fact legal and protected under the 1st Amendment? That Trump only cares about protests conducted by the "radical left" but turns a blind eye to right-leaning protests? That ultimately Trump's definition of "free speech" is whatever he likes and...

    Can Hidden Hearing Loss Symptoms Improve Over Time?

    Interesting. Perhaps people who recover experience a gradual rebalancing of synapses over time, which reduces the loudness of background noise and other sounds. Or maybe the brain simply adapts to the changes in the ear and recalibrates its central processing.

    I’m definitely going to give my ears as much rest as possible. I figure that, along with maintaining good sleep and a healthy diet, should support any recovery that occurs. On the topic of sound therapy, what has your experience been with it? I read that it can help desensitize the ears to...

    @HighleyTall, hello! First off, I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through. I hope your condition improves in the near future. 🙏 Thinking about it, this might be a hyperacusis issue. I’ve noticed that even higher-frequency sounds on my phone seem louder than I remember. If that’s the case...

    Can Hidden Hearing Loss Symptoms Improve Over Time?

    Thanks for the reply! Regarding tinnitus, I haven’t had an episode in nearly a week. The initial trauma triggered ringing for a day, but then it stopped, only reappearing for a few seconds every few days. As I’m typing this, the main issue that remains is the distorted hearing. I suppose...
