Hi all, I've made a fair amount of progress with my hyperacusis since onset 2 months ago - it's not totally gone but sensitivity seems to have died down. However, I'm still experiencing intermittent ear pain - with the sensation of a liquidy/cooling sensation in my ears. This is not provoked by...

Hi all, I initially signed up to Tinnitus Talk 3 years ago in 2016 having experienced my first bout of hyperacusis and TTTS symptoms. I'd been living with very mild non-bothersome tinnitus since I was around 16 (I'm 23 now), however, it escalated to hyperacusis, bringing discomfort and pain. I...

Can anyone else relate to the persistent feeling of being a bad friend because so much to do with social events etc depends on how loud it will be? I have fairly mild tinnitus and suffered a bout of hyperacusis last year, however, both have died down to a manageable level and I want to keep it...

Hi everyone, My hearing issues have worsened significantly over the past couple of months - I have had T for the past 4 years or so with no problems since it has always been so mild but all of a sudden things have got so much worse and I have been experiencing hyperacusis, distortion, constant...

Trying not to make it sound like I am posting simply to elicit sympathy or have a pity party but aside from the hearing damage, (H +T, aural fullness, discomfort etc) itself probably the second most frustrating thing about having this is that people don't really get it. Perhaps it's not fair of...

I've had very mild tinnitus for the past five years without it bothering me but in the past 6 months or so my hearing has deteriorated markedly and I have experienced hyperacusis, distortion, muffled hearing, crackling etc and there definitely has been a shift in the way I am hearing things. I...

Does anyone else suffer from anxiety/depression as a result of or directly related to your tinnitus and other hearing issues? Recently all my hearing issues have come to a head - hyperacusis, distortion etc and I am realising that my hearing has deteriorated greatly over the past few years...

Hi everyone, Recently I have been in a very bad place in fact I recently left a psychiatric hospital because I was considered a danger to myself. Well, my story starts at 15. That was when I first got permanent ringing in my ears - at the time it was faint and mild and didn't really bother me...

Hi there, I am 20 years old and have been extremely distressed lately because of a spike in my tinnitus...for the past 5 years I could pretend it doesn't exist and still enjoy near total silence but recently it has been like a chorus of crickets. Added to this my hearing has become dulled...

Hi there, So, after the past few weeks of stressing incessantly about my hearing I finally plucked up the courage to visit the audiologist to get an audiogram done. Over the past few weeks my ears have felt particularly plugged, tingly, irritable, sensitive to noise and it was really...

Hi, I posted here a few weeks ago but since then my worry has reached breaking point. Unlike many people on this forum, my tinnitus is very very mild, I would say it's 'barely there' however my ears, in particular my left one constantly feel full of air. Anyway, I am guessing that the damage I...

Hi everyone, Just made an account because my tinnitus has made me reach breaking point. I would roughly estimate that I've had tinnitus for maybe 5 years? I'm 20 years old so this was when I was maybe 15/16. In that time it's been so slight that it's been practically a non-issue and I've not...
