Every single time I feel like I’m doing better I immediately have a huge setback and I don’t know why Sep 18, 2024 at 10:25 AM

        Thank you. No, I haven’t been for a walk or left the house in over two weeks. I am in silence most of the time apart from when my little ones come home, I’m around them for an hour or so. Unfortunately a couple of very loud screams from my baby last week seem to have caused some increased sensitisation and I’m not doing well right now. How are you doing?

        I’ve been doing a lot of Alan’s work and think it’s really good, I’m just in a hyper-sensitive state right now (after thinking I was improving ironically)

      Since this morning my left ear is making a vibrating type sound every time I move. Even chewing, moving my head.

        This is most likely TTTS @Zigs It is a condition that is very much related to high anxiety and stress. When stuck in fight or flight mode, this is very common. At least to my own experience. This will ease up with time, but unfortunately this rollercoaster can be unpredictable and totally un-linear.

        The thing is, I have been feeling better! So I don’t understand why it would strike now

        @Zigs That is the nature of this condition. Unpredictable.

      You have my complete understanding. Kids love to scream. But they can be coaxed out of it. It's awful, I truly empathize. Tough ages. Tell them about your ears , and get. Help when possible .Massive hugs..you have been awarded a gold medal. 10 of them. Hugs

      Foam ear plugs, ear muffs. And consistent teaching and patience. I raised three boys. I would tickle them with ear muffs. Your kids are a tough age. You have all my sympathy. Dont give up Mom. Your a star

        Are you taking NAC? ALA? They helped with my pain somewhat and gave me peace of mind. If you don't have custom plugs yet, I strongly suggest you get some.

        I have a 2.5yo and 3 month old...currently feeding the baby with my earmuffs on, reading a nice book. You'll be ok!

        I take NAC. I have ALA but not taken yet as I’ve started gabapentin and don’t want to mix too many things at once! I wear foam earplugs but I don’t really want to wear ear muffs around my toddler as I don’t want her to be freaked out or worried! Thank you x

        Deep breath, you'll be ok. Stop measuring how loud they are - you need to stop the obsessive thinking. I know it's easier said then done.

        As time goes on you will learn what you can handle. You'll go through situations and realize you end up ok which will help ease the anxiety.
