Forgive me, but why single out veterans? Why wouldn't any sensible person not be jaded about regenerative meds? It's 2021. How many years have scientists been working on the eradication of tinnitus? Still no cure. So of course a sensible person doesn't believe. But... humans may learn to fly and...

I like positivity. In fact, positivity has to be the cornerstone of how we cope with tinnitus. We have to on some level accept it. Perhaps not a friend but as part of our being. Resistance is futile and can cause mental illness. It took me a couple of years to come to better terms with mine...

As is the case with many discoveries. Accidental. Pure invention out of the blue is extremely rare. Invention is mostly derivative. Association of cause and effect and trial and error.

Or... the taking forever without a tangible time line is because of the ineffective rollout of the Lenire device which is a close cousin and bi-modal stimulation doesn't have the efficacy across the board and will never be viable. More cynicism? This device aka its development is her job...

You maybe have heard about Michael Boulton and what happened to him. There is a lot of conjecture what happened. Some believe his physiology was weakened by depriving himself of using headphones because he along with all others with a brain don't buy into the notion that headphones have...

If there is a takeaway in this thread, tinnitus or no tinnitus....just beat it:

Magnificient, Have you ever had a spike before? You went to quite a precaution to protect your hearing going to the movie...more than I would have and my ears are sensitive to sound. Why so many precautions? Previous spikes? Sound bother you? Your question is unanswerable. Nobody has a...

This is the first time I am quoting my own post. The fact that there is only one like on this post really shows how much humanity has been striped away by tinnitus or perhaps those here...many at least, never had much of any. Don't worry for those who feel indicted, God isn't punishing you for...

And Lane, based upon what you wrote above, that way we are all interconnected is through consciousness. Some scholars are re-examining consciousness which here-to-fore was thought to be ostensibly exclusive to each of us. Each of having a separate brain and consciousness. This theory however...

Thanks for your prolific thoughts linearb. Yes, I do somewhat believe in your wind and unwind parallel universe if all the matter is the same. People based upon their cognition and data set given identical circumstances will repeat the same good choices and bad choices. Changing the...

Hi linearb, I find you so insightful. Want to preface with that...and not sure if you asked the following rhetorically or not... You ask: Do you find it depressing and disheartening to live a life where you believe you have a such a lack of agency over your own state of mind? My reply: I...

I wonder about sleep and tinnitus, this interaction. I never had trouble sleeping until I contracted tinnitus four years ago. I always slept well. So I wonder about cause and effect. I presume it is the change in my brain that gives me tinnitus that also affects my sleeping. I too have wild...

Even if we have to steal one of the machines and use it 30 minutes a day into perpetuity, it maybe worth it to keep the noise off our doorstep. :) This made me think of something. I was cruising YouTube and there was this nice lady talking about her experience with Lenire which is now up and...

Miracle implying that it is a miracle of nature so positive that without it, this entire exercise wouldn't work. That kind of miracle. Thank goodness if introducing more hair cells that they reconnect to the brain. The opposite of a miracle? That evolution has provided humans without the...

More disinformation. Positive attitude isn't a choice. Positive attitude isn't the cause, its the effect. People can't choose to be positive. They come to being positive born out of success and confidence that once again they are in charge of their lives and the invader doesn't win...
