Feeling Raw today. Failure to distract or mask on all levels. Just a spike... just a spike. Hope all my friends here are coping well enough. Much Love!

Seems cliche af. But Mondays are always hell on my tinnitus. It's definitely my work schedule adjusting back to graveyard shift after the weekend I assume. But dammit it's like slowely acclimating all week just to go back to square one. *sigh*

4 years and counting... silence is but a distant memory. Found a Lenire resource. Tempted.

Deciding whether I even want to post a 4 year tinniversary update. Never really thought this would be permanent and ever increasing. Alas

... Its Saturday ...

Finally... Dark Mode

Same here. The noise is in my ears and head. Isolation seems to heighten my awareness of it. However, I imagine those with hyperacusis or noise sensitivity may have an entirely different experience.

@Kain Sorry to hear you been struggling with your mental health lately. I know it can be rough at times. Hope you can find your footing soon

What sparked your interest in retiring to Ireland from the United States? Had you been there before? I ask because I've always wanted to visit Europe, but I haven't yet crossed the ocean. I hope you're having a blessed day.

Tinnitus doesn't stop for you. Why should you stop for tinnitus?

My Harley Sportster hasn't left the garage in almost two years, and it's starting to get to me. I really want to ride. Lately, I have seriously considered selling the bike and looking into something electric. I know it's not the same, but maybe I can still get that open-road feeling.

Very, very poor sleep last two days. Not letting its get to to me quite yet. Also not sustainable for good mental health. *breathe*

The last thing they want is Kamala talking off-script. She has nothing.

It sounds like you're intentionally putting yourself in an environment that's not exactly easy on the ears. I suggest you avoid engaging in those activities again without proper hearing protection. Hopefully, with time and a bit of luck, your symptoms will improve. Best of luck!

Sitting on the porch listening to the rain and thunder. This ambience used to mask the T. I guess those days are over...

That's good news. I'm sorry you've had to endure this beast for so long. I'm nearly four years in, and I'm improving at managing the spikes without collapsing. But some days... SOME DAYS! Jesus, take the wheel! :pompous:

Same as yesterday... yet somehow heavier. Maybe it's the weather??

I'm actually quoting other Tinnitus Talk members. My tinnitus was preceded by vaccination, and although I have no intention of vaccinating further, I don't personally think it factors into my condition. I merely inquired because of your stated timeline.

Yep... today's one of those days.

After almost four years of this shit show, I may as well reveal myself. Believe it or not, I used to have a lot more hair and some life in those eyes. This location was a lot quieter once upon a time. I took that for granted. I hope you all can find a place to be happy. Much love!

This works like 1/8 of the time. And then only if you don't have the addition of pain hyperacusis. I'm curious if you've ever considered that the COVID-19 vaccine itself caused your tinnitus, given that this is the case with so many people who took the vaccine.

My Job. My Home. My Wife. My Kids. My General Environment. None of this is conducive to making T better. Just gradually worse over time. :(

I'm gonna need a vacation from my vacation... good heaven's the world is a loud messy accident waiting to happen. Lord help us!

Just out of curiosity: What, if any, medication are you taking to supplement this diet change? Many medications are known to be ototoxic and could possibly be the culprit.

Try not to overthink it, brother. Even if the noise itself doesn't cause a spike, stress certainly will. Let's hope it's just a very temporary elevated perception.

I've decided to try this regimen of supplements. Even though my tinnitus has gradually worsened over time, I remain cautiously optimistic that I may still find a treatment that works for me. Thanks for the information, and I hope you continue to improve. Maybe even to silence one day. God Bless.

Hey friends. Hope everyone is coping. I'm trying real hard not to log into this forum more then once a week. I want to check in not obsess.

...good morning... time to vomit. Wish it actually helped. T sucks and I'm a broken record. Hope some of you are having improvements. Peace.

Please T just go away. I've never wanted anything more. I'm so F'n tired of listening to you. Just GO!
