GBB Mar 30, 2021 One of the only things that keeps me going is knowing the effect my death would have on those close to me. Silence is FILLED with sound.

GBB Mar 28, 2021 I'm getting so tired. 8 months and I feel like I haven't even lived. I'm really desperate to have consistent happiness again.

GBB Mar 25, 2021 @Lurius for all of the people saying Lenire is the devil, there is also a large contingent saying it helps. Glad you are feeling relief.

GBB Mar 14, 2021 Basically any PC fan noise or air filter will set off my tinnitus with a tss tss tss noise and I'm almost 8 months in. Is this nerve damage?

GBB Mar 3, 2021 Promoted at work and my boss thinks I'm doing a good job - I guess I'm really good at pretending to be functional.

GBB Feb 20, 2021 @kingsfan just to provide a data point, Xanax does lower my volume, but I've never tried other benzos. My cause is acoustic trauma.

GBB Feb 20, 2021 Time to try a new round of hail mary plays - shrooms, PRP, Lenire, longer fasting, ketamine and others on my list. Hard to procure but YOLO.

GBB Feb 20, 2021 I tried to talk to my mom because I'm spiking, and she said she can't always help me and went to bed. I'm so low my parents recoil...

GBB Feb 13, 2021 Tinnitus today sounds like a hurricane wind is howling, shaking chain link fences in my head, and someone is using a vacuum nearby.

GBB Feb 13, 2021 I have two different, mutually exclusive conditions. Tsss noise which is like a gap in hearing, unmaskable; tones which are maskable. Why?

GBB Feb 9, 2021 Can we agree there is a dimension to T beyond volume, sort of like intensity? I've had loud but "dilute" T and quieter but "piercing" T.

GBB Feb 1, 2021 In case anyone wants a data point, my T started as a screech / eeee and is now much lower pitch 90% of the time. Somewhat less volume.

GBB Feb 1, 2021 It's been 6 months and I'm scared my mental health is still declining. I feel worn, like my body and my brain are damaged.

GBB Jan 24, 2021 Benzo veterans, at what point do you start considering regular benzo use? I'm at 6 months and 5/7 days/week I still have no intrinsic joy.

GBB Jan 23, 2021 So 6 months in my EEEEE has changed almost exclusively to a much lower pitched WAAAAAAAA. Anyone else with similar experiences?

GBB Jan 20, 2021 This is one of the lowest days I've ever had - no idea why or how, but god it feels good to be momentarily "normal".
