How were you one year ago?
Tinnitus Talk Support Forum
@Christiaan oh my goodness! That's incredible. Congratulations you have gotten to the point that you can start doing the things you love again. So pleased for you. <3
Congrats man! Time to go to a rave.
Excellent
@aura in short: rough but liveable. I mean, my T was slowly getting better a year after my worsening in 03/2020, but it was challenging at times when you try to concentrate on your part-time job, sleep & deal with PTSD/stress
@Steph1710 Thanks! Let's hope it stays this way or improves even further. I know that you also had some struggles lately, and I thought that by sharing this story, it might motivate you and others that T can change for the better eventually
I m asking because mine it's getting worse after 14 months. Not a good sign.
@Guywithapug A rave would be quite nice haha. But for now, I'll just stick to less crowded places where they only play smooth jazz:)
@aura I'm sorry you're going through a difficult time. Do you think there are factors that have influence on your tinnitus? Meds, food, continuous stress, etc.? It could be helpful to tackle those issues one thing at a time.
All I can say is that in my case, I've been very strict in adhering to a diet, exercise and notched sound therapy. I haven't skipped a day since I started this regime in +/- 10/2020 and from then on I've experienced a substantial decrease in my tinnitus. Perhaps it has something to do with tackling chronic neuroinflammation & boosting neurogenesis/neuroplasticity
Nice, what'd you like to teach?
Thanks for the encouraging post.
Super glad to hear this.
@Christiaan , can you tell me more about the diet and exercise? Was it just a healthier way of living or a specific diet/exercises adressing neck/TMJ issues?
@aura I've posted something about my regime some time ago in the Lions's Mane thread: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/lions-mane-mushroom.10208/page-4#post-606159. It's a bit outdated, so if you want, I can post an updated list of what I consume and do on a daily basis
Basically, I'm using organic, plant based food with exercise and supplements to reduce inflammation and boost NGF & BDNF (which are important for neurogenesis/neuroplasticity), not for TMJ or anything of that kind per se since two of my three tones are not somatic.
@ZFire I taught French & English at secondary school level (middle/high school)
@Christiaan, posting an updated list would be great! Thank you!
