  • Was on a board game day for 8 hours. Everything started of good but it was alot of yelling when things happened at the board game. Not super loud but more like "NOOOO THATS MY STREET!". Been exposed for like 30 min-1 hour combined maybe. I thought i could handle it without earplugs. Today im spiking loudly (already was in a spike tho). Any tips are appreciated
    Today i let a truck go past me while i was waiting at the crossroad. He honked at me as "saying thanks". Instant anxiety attack.... Man that thing was loud. Heard the truck horns can be 150 DB. Hope i dont get louder tinnitus from this, was inside the car but the honk was only like 4-5 metres away and superloud. :(
    Always these meetings.... Everyone is polite and behaves until some random person 1 meter away from me starts to clapping hes hands like a maniac while someone talks for 5-8 seconds. I couldnt plug my ears since i was trying to listen to the other person 3 meters away that was talking. It was a small room 2x4 meters so it echoed very loudly. I hope this wont cause a spike, i was doing so good this week.
    Today i was using my riding lawnmower. Thought it was a bit more loud then usually. Check after i was done and the muffler had come lose....

    @Soldin That's awesome! Glad to hear that! :)
    Seems like my police siren "incident" has given me a spike with extra "buzzing" i am still anxious and tense so it might just be muscles.

    I try to stop myself having negative thoughts about it each time I catch myself. Then give myself a set time to ruminate and complain on here, then go back about my day. It probably gives the impression that I do nothing but complain about my tinnitus. Sometimes I just come here to procrastinate =)

    Haha i feel you! When something like this happens it takes over my entire world and ruins my week, my main issue is that i cant eat when i get anxious so i turn up just getting weak and useless for a week. I have been getting better tho these "incidents" only happen each 2-3 week now. Before i was having 2-3 of them each day. Feels good to not be in constant panicmode.
    Yesterday i was struck by a police siren 5 metres behind me, he drove past me and into the horizon, Had 35DB earplugs. Hope i will be ok.

    Have you gotten spikes from these event and have they subsided for you? day 3-4 of my spike and it still intrusive and annnoying, not as anxious tho which is a good sign.

    Yea I've gotten spikes from them but I don't remember anything being permanent

    Thanks for the info! :) Today the "buzzing" seems to have morped into some other "tonal" sound, T sure is weird. i Do prefer the tonal much more tho since its way easier to mask and almost blends into other sounds
