  • Feeling like a cripple. Very angry today. Soundmachine turned itself off tonight, so i woke up from my T. Work is hell today. It's so unfair, the other folks do not have T from this event! Why is my body this fragile?!? Getting more and more intrusive thoughts, that my life is screwed forever.

    "What's wrong with you all?" We don't have much choice in this tinnitus crap. BUT...we DO have the choice to toughen-up and quit complaining, and get on with life...or, stay stuck in self-pity and misery...or kill ourselves. I know I choose option #1. What will you choose?

    I'm sorry if my reaction came across as if i wanted to attack someone. I'm not particularly emotionally stable at the moment.

    It's ok. You are still very new to this condition. I know it sucks. But please hang in there! Have hope that the saying "time heals all wounds" is true. I understand all too well the feelings of regret too. Keep posting. You are not alone.
    It's really intrusive today... Like on the first day. It will not get better. I know it. I hate this life.
    I've often asked myself recently what little things I was annoyed and worried about back then.

    I had no idea.

    I do this myself. How trivial those things really were. T gives you a completely different perspective on things.
    I have noticed the following changes since the beginning:

    -there are loud and quiet days for me
    -the sound in my "bad" left ear sometimes changes
    -after getting up, T is usually quieter and gets louder again by bedtime
    -there have been occasional days when the worst parts of my T were barely audible, but very rarely
    -there are relapses, I am still very sensitive to noise at some frequencies
    Hello everyone,

    as of today I would like to document my progress regarding my noise-induced tinnitus.
    I've had my tinnitus since October 25, 2024, so I'm currently at the beginning of the fourth month. I will try to post an update every month, or whenever there are significant changes.

    I would be delighted if you would join me on this difficult journey!
