First off mine is more on the mild side. I can hear it in quiet room, it's probably a 3/4 - multiple tones, new ones that come and go. I've learned to just let it be. Staying off this forum has helped immensely. Honestly I get it, you want to be around people who feel your pain but I fought...

Have a good time! <3

I went to a pool party with loud music bumpin today and bad a GREAT time. I used my downbeats plugs and no spikes. Just exhausted from the hot ass sun! My son was in the pool for 3.5 hours! To let him be out and enjoy himself was a reward. I felt "normal" even with plugs in, had a great time...

Hello! So I saw a video on youtube where there is a certain way to angle the spray into your nose. And I just saw on amazon that they have nose filters that are discreet..good for allergy sufferers. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SHELUP0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_dLIjzbQFF533W

Thank you Kiba <3

I watched this entire thing this morning. In CBT part of it is "exposure". Little by little and not to dangerous sounds, but back into life. Dr. Hubbard's story is on this forum too.

Yes my dad has T. He hears jet engines. I told him about new research about T and he does not care for it at all. He says he doesn't even notice it until someone asks him. He's able to tune it out and focus on other things. This talk really helped me get through some rough patches.

I didn't mean I was going to be careless. I've gone to a few loud events before with earplugs, away from speakers, and no spikes. But I really need to lose grip of letting T control my daily decisions. So far the only thing that has made my T louder was a cold/sinus issue. That has subsided...

Well so I looked up the courses and I can take one specifically for makeup without the hair. I'm probably going to do that and if there are hair dryers going near me ill use earplugs. I don't want to feel like I'm hiding from the world anymore. T has made me more aware to take care of my ears...

So I've had T since the end of January this year. I have what you might consider a minor nuisance. Different tones in each ear, I don't say I suffer but feel for all of you who do. A little background on me.. I'm a homebody, stay at home mom who homeschools her son. I've always lived a...

Hi Chris! Took a road trip a few weeks back to NC and drove through some mountains. No problems :) I had a cold and I think that was more of the issue than the mountains. Enjoy the view!!

I thought of this too :(

This happened to me a few weeks back if you look at my thread. It doesn't happen that often anymore, maybe softly in the mornings but for the most part its gone. I had a cold and stress from a road trip. Which one? No idea just glad I have my regular one back.

I'm sure most of you have heard of the event that took place in Manchester with Ariana Grande's concert. I deeply feel sorry for all the families hurt by this. A part of me thought... maybe not going to concerts isn't that bad anymore. I've never been a concert person but the bombings are...

I dont have experience with your condition but you are in my thoughts. In the meantime youtube tinnitus relief videos and wait for your meds. If you are feeling really low, definitely call your doc. Hope you get better <3
