    Live Singing at a Silent Disco: Unsure Whether My Hearing or Tinnitus Has Worsened

    Since you were wearing earplugs and exposed to the loud noise for only a short time, I'd hazard a guess the experience won't have a long-lasting effect on your hearing & tinnitus. You will be fine.

    @aab Nope. I didn't notice any changes to my T or loudness H while taking it. It helped my pain H (a.k.a Noxacusis) though.

    @MAH1970 Hi. I just came across your profile and read that your T seems to be sensitive to Serotonin. Does your T calm down once you stop taking an AD?

    A few weeks is basically nothing, I'd say. There are success stories of people whose T subsided within the first year or two. Sometimes time proves to be a healer.

    @Kam75 I understand why upping the dosage back to 22.5 mg would be seen as a "defeat" as it would probably mean that your sleep / T is dependent on Mirtazapine. It is definitely a dilemma. :-|

    @aab No, I haven't. Do you use them for herbal tea? I still get a lot of anxiety due to the new level of my T. The daytime is even more problematic for me, I'd say, as I'm not able to ignore the T.

    @Tryn2BHopeful 2mg is quite a low dose. Does it still have a sedating effect on you? My main issue is that I wake up very, very early in the morning with the T screaming in my ear/head, and thus my sleep gets interrupted. Would it help with that?

    @RunningMan I figured that if the T was going to subside, it would already have by now. The change in serotonin level has probably caused the issues in your gut. The question is why they haven't resolved yet if the medication has already left your body?

    @RunningMan I'm sorry to hear that. What does your doctor say though? Is there any effective treatment that can ease your pain? Maybe more time is required for the discomfort to go away. Or maybe there is an underlying issue, as you say. It needs to be examined properly.

    @RunningMan So Lexapro didn't have any affect on your ears? You are very lucky. I wonder how common it is for T to worsen due to starting Lexapro. Other than fatigue, I didn't notice any other side effect while on it. It's rather strange that you still have stomach discomfort.

    I took the last pill exactly a couple of weeks ago, and so far there's been no improvement whatsoever. On the contrary. It's like I'm new to T all over again. Have you come across SSRI-induced/worsened T cases that got better?

    Your story is quite similar to mine. I took three doses of Lexapro. On the third day I woke up with catastrophic T. The difference is that I had already had noise-induced T for three years. It was moderate. Now it has been severe for two weeks (and counting). It's very hard.
