@4Grace Im doing ok. You are very kind also. 3 years sure is a long time. I just hope my hearing doesn't get bad as I get older because I'm so worried it will make my T so much worse.

@SharonBell i am so happy to hear you are doing okay. I know your suffering and nobody deserves this. Anytime you can say those words it's a very good thing. With time and no continued worsening I think you will be okay. Most people with T do not worsen. I have not met one person that continually worsens.
@SharonBell - I was doing better mentally so decided to bike and walk despite my T. I have worsened beyond repair because of it. I used sound therapy since on set of T. Could not survive without. Now my ears hurt with sound therapy. I have been bed bound for 2 days.
@SharonBell - my family is upset with me. They compare me with others with T and it's upsetting. I don't blame them because they could not understand. I know 100 percent that anybody with my current level of T and reactivity would not survive. Honest to God. I am now in a really bad place. My ears are sensitive beyond words. If you can believe it I spike from every little noise.
@SharonBell - my eyes sting as do my ears. The last two days I have had to sit in silence. When T is. It that loud it can drive someone crazy but with sound therapy you can survive. When sound theropy hurts your ears…. I don't know…. My mom asked if I wanted to go to a restaurant with her yesterday. I told her I can't go.
@SharonBell - she says why don't you take some medication. Why don't you do something to help yourself. It's hard to hear those words. My family is also frustrated with me. I worked out. Eating healthy. Walked, biked, volunteered during the day at a place that masked my T. Have declined most of all social outings but I exposed myself to everyday noises.
@SharonBell - that's the best anyone can do. I do think to myself I am not longer worth anything to my family. Let's be honest, for me it's true. Mentally by the Grace of of God, aside from my rants on here I have been okay, all considered. BUT now being bed bound… how long will my family understand this… how long can I sustain this…. They will soon get extremely upset with me. I don't blame them
