I hate it when parents are overly controlling even if I'm 24 and have middle ear myoclonus. I just want to focus on my health rather then pointless crap.

At the very least it didnt make direct contact with my ear canal. If that were the case, then things would have got ugly.

As the sudden bang only lasted a second and didn't come into direct contact directly into my left ear canal, I should hopefully be OK. It was near me, but I imagine a gun going off would have been far worse. Just got to be more mindful in the future.

The exposure was heard for 2 seconds before I put on my muffs. Still, living in a village this horrible desperately make me want to move. All those shills who say you shouldn't use earmuffs are delusional, you need them in a place where wankers show off their drills and rev up their cars. It's...

Been enjoying music again, just keep the volume at around 1 at minimum and 3 at max, but I dont use headphones anymore. Unless I'm in a situation where I would need them, like in a communications room in the military, I will not use them again. That being said, when delinquents are showing off...

Been going to a chiropractor which has been feeling good for unwinding back tension, going to try acupuncture to see if it helps my stress. I have a strong feeling my TTTS was caused by a loud noise exposure which came with it hyperacusis, going to see what I can do with it. Gonna pray that I...

@Contrast OK. It's probably more of the suddenness that made it a bit stressful. Haven't noticed any changes so I should be in the clear. If only the NHS were more quick to respond.

I have tinnitus from stress and TTTS, I am hoping to get them treated, I dont need an old woman to cause me any more problems. All I asked was to put some olive oil in the ear, not tap on the ear with metal that MAY POTENTIALLY DAMAGE IT. Stupid boomers.

This world is full of too many drunkards who think they know their shit. "Yeah, tapping on a fragile part of the body with metal is the MOST IMPORTANT THING"

My main goals at the moment are to finish my remaining uni work, get myself treated of stress and TTTS to remove the tinnitus, then move the hell away from this stupid town. I need to move to somewhere where it's calm.

...seeing idiots using chainsaws, lawnmowers, drills and buzzsaws without protecting their ears makes me question my faith in humanity. Even though my tinnitus isn't technically noise induced it still worries me, like anyone with working brain cells.

My hyperacusis is effectively gone, only really react to very sudden sounds now, however, many sounds I can tolerate now. Recently had an MRI and they didnt find anything, so at this point, I feel my tinnitus is connected to stress and TTTS, since I was in a noisy area when the TTTS came about...

i kinda need it for pain in my right hand. if its in a very small dose, like 1 pill i should hopefully be ok... still a bit worrying. maybe i should just use my left hand for the time being

And when I ask her to stop making banging sounds she gets into a drunken rage, so no point in communicating. Isn't life fun? C'mon FT, give me my silence back!!

I want to rid myself of hyperacusis, but until i can get my own place, I cant. I have to do my sound therapy at 2 AM in the morning when she's asleep, and its so irritating. The 21st century, when baby boomers can act like total idiots to millennials, fucking amazing.

I know the feeling. My baseline is actually pretty low but I get scared of spikes and loud noise in general. I want to defer my dissertation to improve my hyperacusis. My main reason to stay living is for FT and other developments. It does relive me that I won't have to live with this forever...

She has had 9 months to accept the fact that I'm a different person now, with hyperacusis, and she seems to be adamant to make things worse for me. Moving out is the only way for me to be sane. Any parent who can't listen to their childs wishes shouldn't be parents to begin with.

Good for you. I am trying my hardest to combat it, but university work is getting to me.

@Contrast At least they aren't yobs playing footy or as bad as sports cars. I am trying to listen to ambient tracks on YT like waterfalls and waves, which are calming..

Before it was just a "*click click clunk* in the right ear, now theres an extra pure tone in the left... C'mon Frequency, your my only hope!

That feeling when you expect your Mother to be kind and sympathetic, and she's only gone and created more problems. She also bangs cupboards makes a racket downstairs, a real annoyance to my hyperacusis. Also a crazy drunkard, which doesn't help. :(

Doing that for half an hour helps to keep the time passing by, for certain. You might be interested to know that a few weeks ago when a family member went to do an errand, I woke up and it was completely silent for 4-ish hours. I will keep hope that one day I'll eventually regain my silence for...
