    I didn't get better at all in terms of tinnitus and ear related stuff but I'm kind of doing better in life compare to 10 months ago. At least I'm able to work. I'm hoping for the better.

    hello everyone. How is everyone doing? I'm still in the trenches of the hell. It's gonna be almost 8 months and it's still the same as the day it started. I won't ever change I know that. It feels like a fucking joke tbh. I still remember the day 1 as yesterday.

    @Pinhead, where do you live? Are you able to work?
    Pinhead
    I live in the U.S. Unfortunately I have to work in order to afford any basic standard of life, although my CEO and directors have discussed my departure in indirect terms. I think I'm done. My efforts in life only seem to make things considerably worse over time. Nothing has worked out in my favor in any sense.
    2049v
    @Pinhead, I'm working part-time at my old job. I'm still in a very bad situation. It's like death, but I'm not dead.

    2049v
    @delta784, wtf man are you serious? I was regretting so much because I couldn't get the steroids at all. I was thinking if I had at the right time I would have gotten better already but you're saying that it made yours worse...
    delta784
    I am serious they ruined my life i am not even joking i took them from my veins intravenous methylprednisolone for my hyperacusis i got scared to catch nox but it was gonna go away eventually now i have vss,dysacusis,h,tinnitus,reactive tinnitus all from two dose injection worst mistake of my life i will never forgive myself i will lose everything that i've own because of this. even my mental health.
    2049v
    Sure, why would I be part of the lucky majority? I often forget that I came to this world just to suffer.
    2049v
    I also don't want anyone's love, nor do I need it. Just save me from this torment, that's enough.

    @L along the way, I can hear it over everything. It's as if it's being transmitted to me through a different audio channel. Unfortunately, there's no way to beat this fucking thing.
    L along the way
    @2049v there's no way of beating this with any sort of force.. the acoustic harm has really injured me i feel like.. the only hope i have is that healing can take place with natural living and time..

    @L along the way same it's exhausting it's affecting my sleep now too, constant blaring sound. It was better even a few months ago, it was bearable but now it's screaming constantly :/
    2049v
    My family and friends still love me, or rather the old me, but I'm not the old me anymore.
    Pinhead
    This is exactly what I tell everyone. You really did like me pre-March 2021. I'm not that person anymore, nor can I ever be that person again.
    2049v
    @Pinhead, I'm struggling so bad, man. I spent my whole day crying.
    orenge01
    This hits deep. Because it's so true :(
    2049v
    I had floaters a year before my T. Were the floaters a sign that T was coming? They started suddenly, just like T did.
    2049v
    Every night, siren sounds explode in my ears, making me think about my future suicide. One day, I'll finally be free from this.
    2049v
    I am a physically and mentally strong person but due to the catastrophic tinnitus I have, I am struggling not to end my life soon.
    2049v
    I have the worst addiction in the world, there's nothing worse than this: masking sounds, I wish I could die from an overdose.
    L along the way
    I also listen to calming sounds a lot. And am trying to sleep a lot. The difficulty with T is that I had troubles sleeping. But yeah.. plenty of sleep when it's possible seems like a good thing.. but pffft.. it has been harsh.. hoping for a better day
    2049v
    @L along the way, Most of the time, I can't live without ACRN and masking sounds. It's inevitable that I will have to work remotely but I haven't found a job yet. Even if I did, can life even be called life like this? Fuck this BS man. I'm so tired.
    2049v
    I'm one of the those in the world with inner ear damage that has led to the most diseases and symptoms. Nice to meet you.

    @2049v well it hasn't been just a straight line 1 thing experience in that sense.. but indeed.. the general sense of all these past years have been enduring the days.. instead of enjoying the days.. :( i hope we can experience more joy, aliveness and health in the days to come
    2049v
    While everything around me moves at full speed, my life feels like it's come to a standstill. It's like I'm watching from behind a glass.

    My tinnitus used to be much louder and more reactive. There were also many more different sounds that changed throughout the day. My pain level and brain fog and depression were also much worse. I still have all these symptoms, just at a lower level. The improvement isn't obvious from one day to the next. It's observable only when comparing different points in time that are several months apart.

    I still fall into the Mariana Trench sometimes. Quiet hobbies and distractions help because they keep my mind from thinking about my problems. It's a conundrum, though, because the worse my symptoms are, the harder it is to distract myself and feel like I'm climbing out of the trench. Then I get even more upset. I've had to teach myself how to relax and patiently wait for something to improve.

    For what it's worth, I read somewhere that a water lily has roots in muddy water. It can't blossom until it grows tall enough to break the surface of the water. The mud fertilizes the water lily plant, and ultimately that mud is what makes the plant grow tall enough to transcend the water and bloom. I try to meditate on that when I'm depressed, so I'm sharing that in the hope that it helps you too. Big hugs to you.
    2049v
    Oh my dear ACRN, what would I do without you? When nothing else helps, you're by my side. I'm so glad you're here.

    Do you play it on low volume? And it doesnt make your h worse ?
    Yellowblue44
    Just played. Can i ask, how does playing another T type tone help? It was horrible just like my T
    2049v
    @Yellowblue44, I prefer the sound to come from an external source rather than inside my brain. It partially helps me. It needs to be played at a frequency close to the ringing frequency, with an adjustment to the sequence.
    2049v
    I have suicidal tinnitus. No one can understand this apart from those who actually took their lives over it.

    @Yellowblue44, Yes, I have hyperacusis. The biggest obstacle to going outside is that as I am exposed to sound, I start to lose my balance, feel like I'm drunk, and experience confusion. I experience this when I'm outside, at the market; it doesn't have to be a very loud sound for me to feel this way. On some days, I can't cope without masking sounds. As that fucking sound screams in my ear, I want to kill myself.
    Yellowblue44
    Sounds like you may have merines which could be causing dizzyness. Medication for that should help. Have you seen an ent yet? If you can mask your T then that is a bonus to. I have servere T which means I can never mask it as its reactive and even if I tried it would make my H worse.
    2049v
    @Yellowblue44, No, I don't have Meniere's disease. My tinnitus doesn't get masked; I just feel partially relieved with some methods. Neither of the two ENT specialists applied any treatment. One of them just said that my complaints would decrease over time. Since the MRI and other tests came out clean, the problem is in the inner ear.
    2049v
    I don't want to die (yet) but at the same time I don't want to live. Idk if anyone reading this would understand what it means.

    @tpj, I understand how we all want to put this tinnitus behind us and live normal lives again. It's a helpless feeling. I recently asked another ENT if he could give me a steroid injection in my middle ear but he wouldn't do it. I was just looking for some potential tinnitus relief In my left ear.

    I'm so tired of it all @just1morething. Hate living this way.

    I wish your surgery had been more helpful.
    2049v
    I swear I have one of the worst tinnitus in the world, I swear on everything.

    @MiaVIL, I also get that once in a while and I know it's terrible. What was the cause of yours?
    M
    2049v
    @MiaVIL, I had it when I was 6 or 7. I remember telling my parents about my ringing. I even had hearing tests and everything but in time I think I totally forgot about it even though it was still there. With the last acustic trauma I remembered about this infection. Now it's suicidal level.
    2049v
    It's a very strange feeling to want to die every day because of inner ear BS that no one knows about in 2024. I don't want to live!!!!!!!!!!
    2049v
    I'm writhing in pain in bed. I had goals, dreams, and plans, but now there's only pain and torture.

    @L along the way, Yes. If my condition weren't the most severe type, my life would be a bit easier, but I suffer torture every single day.

    @2049v i know exactly what you mean, sadly enough.. awful painful suffering on the daily pffft.. painful and just ridiculous beyond words, im saying that without exaggeration. I hope and pray we can be reborn. That somehow our ears and brains can heal back to our natural way of being. Natural health and wellbeing. Natural health and wellbeing.

    I'm ashamed of myself for falling into such a situation and writhing in helplessness.

    It's understandable to feel like this.. i also have been enduring a lot, and it's really not fun.. just remember that you didn't ask for all this.. trying to be kind to yourself

    @2049v this is the thing i struggle with too, like what is an actual solution for this? And sadly.. nobody has any answer basically. Yes, i do believe that a healthy lifestyle (i switched to plant based foods), mindfulness and plenty of rest is good, also distraction. But it hasn't cured t. So, that's why i try to put my trust in the hope that time is a healer.. i mean.. what else sensible can i do
    2049v
    It's not "hard" to live with this, it's just not possible. People can't comprehend what is like to live with a constant torture.

    @2049v I am single, 36. I have some hope of finding new love, and maybe starting a family some day, but for now my own wellbeing deserves most priority and care

    At the end of this, I'll either sink to the very bottom, or I'll emerge stronger than ever before.

    @kingsfan, I try to do things I used to enjoy to escape this curse, but as soon as I step outside, I experience balance issues and nothing feels enjoyable. Three months ago, I woke up one morning, and everything was over for me.
    BrOKeN_1
    @2049v I totally get that. Considering where you are in your journey. 4 months in with no Sleep and my wife was looking to have me committed. It's hard to say what will happen should you stay in the fight. But I've been here long enough to see major improvements in most people. And others habituate to a livable degree. I wish you the best. Truely.
    2049v
    @tomytl, Thank you for your supportive words, my friend. They truly mean a lot to me. One morning, I woke up with hearing problems, ear pain, dizziness, hyperacusis, and extremely severe tinnitus. Suddenly, I found myself in the middle of hell. I just want to escape from this.
