    Today my boss "rewarded me" for my hard work by taking hes palm and smash it on my shoulder 5-6 times really hard and said "GOODJOB *name*!". This is the EXACT same person i said that i have very hard for people talking loudly close to me or clapping their hands. Its make me so frustrating and sad. Cant tell if im spiking since im already in a spike from the catcarrier incident....

    Sudden sounds hurt you?
    Sodlin
    Sudden noises are really hurtful but i dont like sounds being close to my ears and him hitting me on the shoulder felt like he clapped hes hands right next to my ear. I have both TT and Hyperacusis and tend to spike easily. i also get ALOT of anxiety/panic over "loudish" sounds. i often also "dwell" about the incident for days which takes alot of energy :)

    Are im the only one stuck in this cycle? Loud noise ---> anxiety and louder tinnitus for like a day to some weeks ---> i forget about the incident or calm myself ---> Tinnitus back to baseline (or gets better) ---> new loud sound etc etc.... Is my reaction my problem for my spikes? happens like 1-2 times a week.

    You're not the only one, I'm stuck in that same cycle as well but it's between months, not really weeks but yeah its annoying :/

    @HighleyTall it might be but its weird it always seems to "go away" at the same time as i calm myself.
    Sodlin
    @orenge01 yea. Just wished wished i could "not care" and not freak out everytime i hear a loud sound.

    Was feeling like my spike and anxiety calmed abit so i took my cat for a drive in the car (to get him used with it). When i came home and took hes cusion out of the cage the giant metal door fell down 1,5 metres and hit the wooden floor with two bing BANGS.... Not sure if its pure shock or im having a "new" spike now. Feels like so many stuffs happens so cant tell what spikes me and what not lol.

    I just wanna hide in my bed for 1 year. Im going thru a really though spike. Meet someone when i was in the garage so i took out the earplug in one ear to talk to her. Then from NOWHERE a dog comes like 6 meters away 10 seconds after i removed my earplug and barks like a god damn maniac. I just stood there for 10 seconds baffled and frozen in respons before i put my finger in my ear.

    I hope it can still subside.
    That's unfortunate that a dog came so unexpectedly barking like that, it's annoying when unexpected loud noises happen like that and you can't do anything about it :(
    Wishing you the best for the recovery of this setback.

    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

    Wow I was also at a family gathering for like 8 hours. And it wasn't super loud, I was able to get breaks. Funny how similar situations can be.
    I wish you can recover as soon as possible from this setback, and remember to bring earplugs next time even if the event doesnt feel like it can be super loud. It's definitely good to take precaution still. Wish you the best. :)
    Sodlin
    Yes i will definitly do that next time!

    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....
    orenge01
    Well as long as it didn't cause a spike...
    Sodlin
    It did go back to normal! :)

    @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 =)
    Sodlin
    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.
    kingsfan
    Yea I've gotten spikes from them but I don't remember anything being permanent
    Sodlin
    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
