I don’t mind who anyone votes for, but I have a question for the Trump supporters here: if he loses, will you accept the results of the election? Apologies if this has already been asked. My sincere hope is that over the next four years, we can begin to make meaningful changes that improve life...

This thread is nuts, lol. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I'll likely do both.

The only advice I can give is to continue protecting your ears and allow them time to heal. Be patient with yourself, as the recovery process can be unpredictable. Once you start feeling a bit better, you might consider introducing some white noise to help you get used to sounds again. I do this...

Hi there, I'm really sorry to hear about what you're going through. Noise trauma can be incredibly distressing, especially when you're usually so diligent about protecting your ears. In my experience, I sometimes get fleeting tinnitus up to ten times a day, lasting 30 seconds or more. I've...

I'm sorry to hear about your concerns. I have been taking Gabapentin along with SSRI/SNRIs for many years, and it has not affected my tinnitus. Just to let you know, my tinnitus was not caused by medication. I understand the fear of starting a new medication while worrying about the impact on...

I am 34 now and generally doing well. I did not do much when I was suffering from hyperacusis. My hyperacusis very rarely acts up anymore, luckily. Still, when I have hyperacusis flare-ups, I don't do much besides try to rest and slowly build tolerance to sounds/frequencies that make me...

When I first got tinnitus, I clung to the "fake it till you make it" mantra. I tried to convince myself that things would turn around, that someday, the constant ringing in my ears would just fade into the background because no one could live this way. I was so desperate that I even volunteered...
