Hi! I have a similar story: I was wearing custom-molded -25 dB linear musician earplugs at a bar and spent a few hours on the dance floor, only to realize (once again) that these earplugs may not be the best when things get really loud! Next time, I'll either avoid such loud environments or use...

Hi! I had several episodes of SSHL in both ears and am left with annoying tinnitus even though my hearing came back to 'normal' each time (within max 3 days but might take longer so don't lose hope). I think I have inner ear damage after all these episodes and no real explanation about the...

Take care of you and your dreams !

Well not in the sense of acoustic trauma but neuromodulation is supposed to modulate neuronal activity right?

I experienced a lot of changes without identifiable cause... But stress can only make things worse...

Difficult to tell it also probably depends of the level of anxiety and individual profile... You will never know anyway but stress especially long term is generally toxic for your health...

From readings and experience I believe it can... Maybe through bloodflow impairment... Quite stressful right?

Hello fellows! I have a feeling that everyone is now experiencing what it is like to live under a constant threat like we do with tinnitus :(! I have a question about Lenire: Does it work better for some kind of tinnitus? I have a new whistling kind of morse code sound in one ear above my...

Hello ! Was the onset instantaneous or progressive ? This could also give some indication... It looks like T is often triggered or aggravated by a combination of things with noise and stress at the forefront ! Be very careful with noise, stress and medication as from now...

Anger and suffering can lead to destructive behaviors and can be contagious and even exponential... The past cannot be changed but lessons can be learned... or not ! It looks like humans have difficulties learning from the past, either on an individual or collective scale ! Don't vote for anger...

I thought like you! Then I went to a party without earplugs... Then real hell started! Protect your ears ever...

The guy you saw was probably Gerard Spencer ! He is the one who brought me to this instrument :woot:! Are you from Brussels ?

I am musician too and cannot imagine giving up on music ! I think in my case the tinnitus was actually brought by stress or some drugs (sudden hearing loss) more than by music but then probably noise/music made it worse... I know I have to be very careful with my ears but I also know that...
