  • Hey Mark, in really struggling with my tinnitus at the moment and could do with a little hope. Did you see any improvement in the first 3 monthes or was it not until the 4/5 month point?

    It took about 5 months before my nervous system calmed down some. Before that I would notice my tinnitus and feel instantly panicked in my guts. That has gone away, thankfully! I also started sleeping longer/deeper around the 5 month mark. How are you doing? What are you struggling the most with?

    Well after 2 monthes I started to mellow a bit but then suddenly I seemed to go backwards. My sleep has also been reduced to 2/3 hours a night. Been pretty hard but im very fortunate to have a loving family who are trying their best to support me. I'm glad your anxiety has improved alot!

    Do you get regular exercise? Just going for walks outdoors can really help ease your mind, even if it's only temporary. Weight-lifting and running/biking can also help a bunch. The idea being to work/exercise to the point you're exhausted at the end of the day...and consequently you sleep longer/better.
    How're you doing now?

    I still have the ringing, but my nervous system has adapted to it. I no longer get that sick feeling in my stomach, when I become aware of it. The fight or flight response is 99% gone. I protect my ears when things are loud, and I still hold out some hope that it may fade away further...with more time going by.
    Do you have hearing loss from the gunshots? How are you Mark? You and me experienced a similar unfortunate accident

    Tinnitus is there, definitely better and quieter since day 1, and hyperacusis is better than day 1 too. I still get very depressed about this, but regardless I still live my life as best as I can.
