    Went to My First Live Gig Last Night in 5 Years and Then...

    And then, well nothing happened with my tinnitus, it was great. Great sound, used my custom molded earplugs that I've finally used. The sound with them is great. I've been a regular here for my first few years of tinnitus. And then, maybe like most of the members here, I've just continued...

    Please Assure Me That Everything Will Be Better and That I Will Enjoy the Music Festival

    Well i've had very loud events these last few years and it did absolutely nothing to my tinnitus, with or without earplugs. I'm seriously starting to think tinnitus is just random, you never know. I feel like your question is like asking if you're going to have a car accident because you had...

    Anyone Flew Drones with Tinnitus?

    I Have a 1-Hour Flight Tomorrow. What Are the Chances of It Worsening My Tinnitus?

    I've been on a bunch of flights since. The airplane is not so noisy itself, i thought it's around the airport and on the dock that it's a bit noisy but only lasts for a few minutes. All this changed absolutely nothing about my tinnitus

    "Here" Active Listening Earbuds

    Well i don't really know about misophonia therapy, but i always remember people cringing when someone was using chalk on boards at school and some others didn't bother at all, we aren't 100% equal when it comes to audio. Just like people wearing glasses i guess :)
