From what I understand the feeling of aural fullness after noise trauma is due to an abnormal build up of fluid in the inner ear. I forget where I read this or heard this so I'm open to someone telling me off. Inner ear fullness can remarkably feel exactly like middle ear fullness, so it's quite...

As someone with awful on and off ETD, TMJ, tinnitus, and hyperacusis, it'll probably go away. Even an atrocious noise insult to me that leaves me with searing, burning ear pain and shocking aural fullness goes away eventually. Just stay in silence for a bit and be glad you're not in too much...

Then you're good, but part 5 animu likely won't have Romi Park as Giorno, which will just be sad to me. Sorry Namikawa... Or whoever is gonna voice him now.

Read the manga.

I really feel for you... All of my troubles began due to a brutally aggressive, unnecessary ear irrigation. I just remind myself it wasn't my fault, I was just looking after my own health, and really it was the physician's fault to not denote wax wasn't the issue but clogged tubes and maybe a...

reme meme don't you think?

Sometimes I have the temptation to commission a drawing of my choir girl but with her ear(s) on fire. I don't feel the same with fire ear man.

THANKS FREQUENCY

Hyperacusis is an unpredictable, shape-shifting beast that seems to be different for everyone. Granted my experience is limited as I've only had this life-destroying condition for about three months, but my main recommendation would be honestly and ironically to play it by ear. Whatever works...

Sorry I'm going to get negative here and vent. If this type of thinking is unwelcome here I promise I won't do it again. I'm just so frustrated. I just have next to no hope for this... Science is just not cyberpunk enough yet for something so ambitious. Even advancements in other more promising...

Is there a horse you're betting on? Shore's device? Her device sounds like residual inhibition almost but more physically based...

I really do want Frequency to succeed but I just have so little hope... How do you all even stay optimistic? :( I just feel like it's a pipe dream... :cry:

If you shot yourself in the head, would the last thing you'd hear be the gunshot, tinnitus from the gunshot, or nothing at all...? :confused:

The Levo System is that thing you listen to when you sleep, right? I wonder if there's some truth to it considering my tonal tinnitus vanishes for a bit when I hear a 4khz tone. :confused: I'm too scared to even think about trying it though with my hyperacusis.

Also I'll say it again, phone DB meters are trash and give a false sense of security. Buy a real one. Phone microphones are very limited and not accurate at picking up high levels of sound. It's how I got hurt this time around. :( Was in an environment that read as 87 db but absolutely was not.

Is that gorilla a metaphor for hyperacusis, because I don't want to let it run away. I want to stab it to death.

This is seriously how I felt all of March.

When you accidentally expose yourself to 106db+ish speakers for three-five seconds and your ear begins to tickle with a burn. Am I just going to live in isolation and wear protection everywhere I go for the rest of my fucking life? :( Fuck, I can't believe how one syringing did me in so fucking...

Less hyperacusis pain, new vestibular dizziness. A lot of self-loathing... I'm trying my best to keep going.

If you want to get your ears laid, be sure to do it safely! What? I just told you, silly! It's totally safe. :rolleyes:

Thank you :)

I wish I could say well but I'm really not. Seems I traded my mild hyperacusis for something far worse. My whole experience the last two months has made pinning down causes very difficult. My ear syringing pretty much definitely caused my initial noise-related hearing loss, but my valsalva the...

I don't understand why most audiograms stay frozen at 8khz. Hospital near me does up to 16khz, there's no real excuse aside from a lack of funding to not go up that far, but even then a test going up to 16khz is so much more valuable. Anyway here's the dino tax and my reaction to 8khz-only...

It's no problem bud, I really hope you recover. I'd also recommend from now on just taking on a new mindset of not caring what other people think about you. This is your health and you need to look after it, and earplugs are so small I doubt almost anyone would notice, and even if they did, it...

Honestly? Silence. A lot of silence, plugs all the time indoors; muffs outdoors, and then being very cautious when you get back to a comfortable baseline. For me at least, it can take one sound to make a dent in my progress. It's awful, but it's the way my bootleg ears work.

Threefirefour acts like less of an expert than a number of people around here, honestly

Oh no... I just whistled... I used to whistle a lot, and it just killed my ears... Both of them. Ugh this sucks so much. Why is hyperacusis a thing. :cry:

*white teenager :unsure:

The main series is 110 episodes(? I think?) It's a commitment for sure but it's one of the most rewarding shows I've ever seen, and it ends just at the right time before overstaying its welcome. Honestly, it went so quickly for me as I often couldn't stop watching. If you want to kind of run a...

At this point I'm going to be protecting my right ear like it's the holy grail.

Fuck the ears, man. You can get your heart fully replaced but one little incident with ears and they just shut down for life. So damn weak. :arghh:

For what it's worth, I tried one gentle yet sustained valsalva a month ago when I had ETD. I heard a rather violent pop and thought I burst an ear drum, but doctors found nothing obvious. At first I thought not much of it, but the state of my left ear has progressively worsened with tinnitus...

Hey, I had the exact same levels a few years back for god knows how long. Seriously, mine was also at 4. I think you'll be just fine. From time to time I still take 5,000iu D3 daily because my levels constantly drop due to my (lack of a) lifestyle. It takes a lot of D3 to be toxic. Some people...

Hyperacusis is a deep inner ear pain or and/or ache in reaction to certain frequencies, sometimes it even lingers afterward. In my opinion, just plain aural fullness isn't necessarily hyperacusis, it's a symptom of many issues. Do you have any pain? Spasms in reaction to sound? If you don't...

It's okay Jon I'd still like you even if you wanna bang birds.

I'd also say less "gullible" people and more "desperate", which makes it even worse :( Preys on the weak. Hate this stuff so much.

There ya go

For what it's worth, I have this "reactive T" and painful hyperacusis in the same ear. Every time I scratch a piece of furniture, tap something, or even breathe, my left ear lets out a sharp "IING" in response, and then fades away. If I push it further with a more aggressive frequency noise...

Did it too many times out of OCD as I was desperate and losing my mind, then I thought I hurt myself. Doc says I likely didn't so back to square one on the causes of my H which was probably the irrigation + ETD.

So my neuro-otologist said that that Reddit cure couldn't possibly do any significant damage, so I guess I'm in the clear of being even more of a dumbass than I thought I was. :( I hope he's right at least...

I'd release it for free, 'cause that's how healthcare should be. Fight me, nerds. :bag:

tfw you wish you had that time gizmo Hugh Neutron "master of time and space" abused so you could point it at your ears to undo your T&H :grumpy:

Ugh, if it's nerve damage, that type of treatment has been elusive pretty much everywhere in the body. :(Usually once a nerve is damaged significantly enough, it's over... Where are those miracle Bioshock sea slugs when you need them lol

Man I have this fear that even if by some miracle we do eventually regrow hair cells, the brain just won't shut up and continue to ring because it just got too comfy making that phantom noise :grumpy: Gonna also say that, as much as it sucks, habituation is the best thing we got at the moment...

Dub actors tend to be very experienced though as they're often taken from the same pool across all shows. I feel like it's more of a class of acting thing than anything else. Though I also now remember reading an article ways back how game and anime dubs very rarely hold auditions, and...

Seeing recoveries like these give me hope... I've been experiencing H for almost two weeks, and even though it's been mild it's been a hell on earth I wouldn't wish on even the most diabolical of people.

They don't wanna solve it or H because they need them sweet WNG kickbacks $$$$$ Thousands of dollars for hearing aids when you can buy earbuds for $10 lmao Sorry, just super bitter lately.

The FLCL dub wasn't too bad either. ROD the TV is also stellar. Most of the time though I just want to experience things as close to the original source material as possible, whether it's anime or movies, so subs it is. Also, though Japanese voice actors sometimes overact, I feel like English...

I pretty much never watch dubs so... No worries :whistle:

So jealous of the snow. I wish I lived somewhere where it snowed 365 days a year. :love:

I'm sorry, Miriam... Hopefully since you only just noticed this you'll eventually be able to let it fade into the background like before... Also, who knows what might happen? If you protect your ears and avoid loud situations it may even fade with time... Stress and anxiety also heighten your...

I'm sorry to hear of your pain, Miriam. Sometimes I wonder myself if I've long had a ring or hiss and just didn't notice it until trauma made me more aware of it. Everyone deals with T differently and no one can really say for sure whose is harder to manage. Have you tried some kind of white...

Would also like to know this. TV has become frustratingly unpredictable for me.

Just remember to still be careful around noise!

Watched Miss Hokusai the other night which was a charming little movie, and then blasted through Kakegurui which was just okay, not amazing, especially when it comes to other gambling shows. The animation though was top notch and the girls were fun to watch. Favorite anime would have to be the...
