    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    I have no issue with honesty, all I'm saying is that the whole "someone else has it worse" thing doesn't make me feel better, lol. This is the problem - I don't want to live like this. This kind of existence isn't living, it's just waiting for the day to end. What's the point? (And I don't...

    You're right, I immediately feel better about my life now and all the terrible thoughts are gone!

    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    There's a door in our otherwise quiet-ish office that people keep slamming. Fortunately I'm not that close to it, but one of these days it feels like I'm going to flip...

    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    @Michael Leigh I'm afraid there's not much else I can do - I've started using the WNGs, read every article available multiple times and I'm only getting more bitter, not less. I used to be able to talk to my friends, now I just want to tell them to kill themselves. The escitalopram I was given...

    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    @Bobbie7 I couldn't disagree more about the whole "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger" approach. I have battled mental illness for most of my teenage and young adult years. I do not feel one bit stronger for it. I've gone through things that most people in my age group couldn't even imagine...

    ...which I would gladly do, if there was a person like that in my country. It's not even the tinnitus that really gets me at this point, it's the hyperacusis *sigh*

    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    That would actually make things much easier, as I would immediately know that my life was over and I would kill myself as soon as I got the chance. This was, I'm still having trouble gathering the courage necessary for it. Then again, I have an eye disease so I might end up legally blind either...

    Does Anyone Else Get Resentful of People with Healthy Hearing?

    Because I sure do. I have reactive tinnitus and hyperacusis and I've become extremely limited in what I can do. Unfortunately, this has caused me to hate the people who are close to me - I don't see my friends anymore, nor do I really talk to them online because I just cannot get over the...

    Tinnitus Only When Hearing External Sounds, No Tinnitus When Sitting in Silence. Anybody Else?

    Probably a form of reactive tinnitus. I have a lot of tones, but some of them only pick up if I hear certain kinds of broadband noise.

    Accuracy of Smartphone Sound Level Meter Applications

    Just invest in a real dB meter - they're quite affordable and you won't have to deal with worrying about all this.

    Suicide Is NEVER an Option

    No offense, but 1: it clearly is an option, Chester has just provided an example and 2: you're actively choosing to participate in these threads and telling everyone it's stupid... what are you hoping to achieve? I've started looking up lawyers and making sure my will is legally perfect, and...

    Very Loud Low-Frequency Sound in My Left Ear, Only at Night? Anyone Experienced This?

    First Major Setback Since Onset Almost a Year Ago

    Oh yeah, it does that. Mine feels like I have a sunburn inside my ears. @Lex I'm sorry you have to deal with this. Wish I could say something to make you feel better but the best we can do is a hug emote. Hang in there, for now.

    Bad Week (Tinnitus Seems to Be Reacting to Aspirin)

    I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I'm sure there's some other medication you can get that doesn't spike your T. Hang in there!
