  • I should have told them I loved them every day instead of being proud. I have always been alone. I am doomed. Help me please, I am breaking

    You are not alone. Stay strong. I should follow my own advice. Therefore I know it's not easy. I am praying for you now. I wish I could do more for the people on here. We are here for you.

    We are here for you!
    I love my family so much. I am so so sad. I have wasted my life being proud and ignorant of what matters. Forgive me. Please
    I am so so sorry for everything I've done wrong in this life. I could have done better. I know I am a bad person. I am so sorry

    You do not sound like a bad person at all. I feel the exact same way. At one time it consumed me. Every sin no matter how small came back to haunt me big time. All of them. Even the ones from many years ago. I am talking mostly about when I was not kind to people. Even though I thought of myself as a good person.

    If it makes you feel any better, there's no plan, everything that happens to people is random, it doesn't matter if they are good or bad.

    I know I have done bad things in my life. I have hurt people who loved me. I have been unkind, had unkind thoughts. Am I being punished?
    My tinnitus has only increased after starting my new job. I am thinking of quitting. Could it be stress driving it?
    4Grace
    Stress is not good for T but so are many other things . I am not sure of your financial situation or if it's loud where you work. What I can say for sure is that work is a great distraction. I stay home now and going a little stir crazy. If you can keep the job I would stay busy. It will help with the stress better then staying at home,
    Juliane
    Thanks both. Working from home and I do feel the distraction is nice but why then is the T getting worse?
    4Grace
    @Juliane I know. It seems no matter what I do mine gets worse. This is the hardest part. I think stable tinnitus can be a little easier. I hope things improve for you.
    If not for Tinnitus Talk I would have been so depressed. I still am, but TT makes me feel less alone. SO glad I found all of you!!

    I feel the same way. My family says why are you on that forum all the time. I tell them they are the only people that understand me… and they are all so kind!
    Because of T, I have no defense against old trauma left. Sorrow and pain overwhelm me at the moment. Anyone else feel this way?

    2/4 your body said "enough". How bold, how rebellious - you, out there - honoring your own natural rhythm, going against the culture's

    When I was young I had a feeling nothing really bad could ever happen to me. Perhaps a belief in God? Now I feel cursed by dark forces.
    Have you managed to get any sleep?
    Juliane
    @SilverFox I managed to get some hours of coherent sleep this night, which is all I am hoping for. Thanks for asking.

    Have you been able to sleep some? I think we are in the same boat as we both prefer staying away from sleeping medication. If it continues to be bad, I might have to take a pill but as you I really prefer not to. But sleep deprivation makes T so much worse.
    SilverFox
    @Juliane Thank you. I slept for about two hours. Previously it was somewhat better on most nights, but this week my T changed somehow and is even more bothersome.
    Juliane
    @SilverFox So sorry! I think I got 2 hours max this night as well. Still working today but feel I am about to go mad.

    @Juliane my God we are all in the same place. I hear your cry for help. All I can say is you ARE NOT alone. You are such a kind person. I am sending a virtual hug.

    One day at a time. One breath at a time. One step at a time.
    Juliane
    @4Grace Thank you so much. You are too kind.
    This is no way to live. I wanted to try and get through without sleeping pills, but not sleeping is making me severely suicidal
    MadeleineHope
    What natural supplements have you tried so far? Maybe I can suggest something
    Juliane
    Thank you, you are so kind. Magnesium and chamomile only
    Scared I messed up my GABA regulation by zopiclone use in spring and drinks during summer... All is lost
    kingsfan
    @Juliane Have you taken any of your zoplicone (is that the right med?)? If it helps your tinnitus, it might be good for you to take a little break and decompress.
    RunningMan
    @Juliane I have not noticed any effect on my T based on zolpidem, CBD, THC, or anything I've consumed ( haven't had alcohol). It just seems to have its own variable cycle for sounds, although exercise ramps it up for a while.
    Juliane
    @kingsfan Actually no. I am trying to power through without meds as I am scared of messing up my GABA further. Which means I'm not sleeping..
    2/2 Could my recent alcohol induced spike therefore be compared to a "benzo withdrawal" spike?
    1/2 I'm reading on Benzo Buddies that zopiclone works in a similar manner to benzos and, incidentally, alcohol does as well.
    2/2 what you got till it's gone. Why is that? I have so many regrets
    Ngo13
    As they say, hindsight is 20/20. But there is no use dwelling on the past as you can't change it. There's no use obsessing over the future as you can't predict it. That just leaves trying to live in the present the best way we can.
    Tryn2BHopeful
    Things I used to think were a big deal seem much more trivial now. Its all relative to you at the time. Dont be so hard on yourself.
    1/2 Before my worsening, in spite of being deaf in one ear, I had a beautiful life. But I was always in a hurry, being impatient. Don't know
    SarahMLFlemmer
    Same. ;( I totally understand this. And now I'm sucked into my phone looking for a way out. Wasting precious time.
    Looking into booking a place in quiet village via Airbnb but then comes nxt problem: what if the smoking alarm should go off?? Paranoid

    I've been staying at multiple hotels in the past two weeks and this also made me uncomfortable. Always kept earmuffs and plugs within reach and had no issues.
    And not searching for a cure and wasting money on uselessness will hopefully destress the nervous system a bit. Here is hoping.
