That's what happens when someone suffering from "little man syndrome" lets his ego run his life, and the fortunes of a country (Russia). Disaster is sure to follow sooner or later--in this case sooner.

True, but I think his belief that he was beyond accountability for literally anything he did started several decades earlier. That would include cheating hundreds of small business owners over many years who contracted with him, violent sexual assault, and cheating in just about every way...

Hey @Jazzer -- I think you might enjoy the following (pretty amazing) story about a connection between a little girl and an egret. Don't know if it touches on the issue of whether or not God exists, but it might... :) Soul-to-Soul Connection - 6 min.

I'm somewhat disappointed that the first time an ex-President of the U.S. is charged with a crime is for hush money paid to a porn star. I really don't much care if somebody has paid hush money like this, and I doubt that very many people in the U.S. thinks it warrants an indictment. That said...

Hi @ErikaS, Just a quick note to let you know I'm concerned about some of the advice you're getting. I think there are very potent ways to shift things for ourselves that don't involve drugs, drugs that can be problematic, not just emotionally and/or mentally, but spiritually as well. One...

Hydrogen peroxide will likely do the same. I read an account once of a fairly large organic vegetable business started adding hydrogen peroxide to the water used for irrigation. The health of the plants greatly improved, and their "freshness" lasted much longer after being harvested. Almost...

Hi @GeorgeLG -- I've heard it's because our spiritual destiny is so high, something I've come to accept as likely true. The journey to God is apparently not like traversing a nice even landscape, or a downhill slope. Instead, it's supposedly more like climbing a steep mountain. It can be rugged...

Hi @ZFire -- Not sure if your post was meant to be funny, but I thought it was because I've had similar thoughts! I guess it comes down to whether or not God is like a North Korean dictator who wants to control every aspect of your life, mostly to your detriment. I think of God as a loving...

Hi @scotty03874 -- Happy to hear you have some improved hearing. Just to mention, I've done a lot of cranial sacral work over the years, and feel I've gotten a lot of benefit from those 20-25 minute sessions. There were occasions when a single session tamped down my tinnitus volume while I was...

Hi @Henry Orlando FL -- Are you familiar with some of Yogi Berra's sayings? One that has stuck with me is what he had to say before an upcoming world series against a team that was favored. He apparently quipped, "If we can get them to thinking, we can beat 'em"! I'm of the opinion that when it...

Bingo--on the wrong part! My take is every person is in essence their own religion, which shows itself to the world in how they lead their lives. I remember looking around at the congregation one morning during church service as a grade schooler, and came to the conclusion that even though...

I seem to recall that hundreds of bankers got prosecuted by in the 1980s (with many going to jail) for their shenanigans during the Savings & Loan crisis. I was appalled that Obama's justice department never went after the crooks that caused the 2008 banking crisis, knowing that if there were no...

Hi @Henry Orlando FL -- I always enjoy your "musings". I might just run something by you to see what your take on it is. I'm very much into energy medicine of all kinds, and have watched a lot of YouTube videos on it. Two of my favorite "authors" are Donna Eden and Prune Harris. If a person...

Hi @ErikaS -- I take the liquid form and measure my dosages by drops. According to the dosing table below, it's recommended I take 80 drops a day. However, since my body is extremely sensitive, I always start out slowly with just about everything I try. So I started at 3 drops the first day...

Hi @Ngo13 -- It comes in dropper bottles, and can be bought on Amazon. I just made a post where I talked a bit more about it. Maybe check it out, and let me know if you have any questions.

Hi @ErikaS -- Just to let you know (after our earlier discussion), I've been taking Methylene Blue for about a month now, and it's been an absolute game changer for me. Literally everything has changed for me; better energy, better moods, better thinking, ability to relax, and more, even...

Like cryptocurriences?

Hey @Jammer -- Do you ever wonder (like I do), why there aren't similar criminal investigations originating out of Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania? Feels to me like a lot of state prosecutors are asleep at the switch, and too many at the DOJ as well. I think Garland has...

Hi @Ed209 -- My understanding is the FDIC decided to cover all uninsured deposits for SVB and Signature customers, but not for any other bank. That's why there's been continued intense depositor scrutiny on small and regional banks. They know their uninsured deposits are still uninsured. No...

Not really, as the coverage limit on insured deposits is the same in large banks as it is in small banks ($250,000). The reason big banks are perceived as a safer place to have uninsured deposits is primarily because they're perceived as "too big to fail", whereas smaller banks haven't been...

Hi @Ngo13 -- Thanks for sharing your modest improvements. They mirror quite closely the improvements I'm having with small doses of Methylene Blue, which I started about 3 weeks ago.

The current "bank crisis" is probably equivalent to about 1 or 2 rate hikes in its ability to slow down lending, thus slow down the economy, and thus slow down inflation. In essence, the bank liquidity problems are doing the Fed's inflation fighting job for them--without a rate hike. My bets are...

Hi @yeezysqueezy -- Sorry to hear you're dealing with arthric pain (on top of tinnitus no less). In case you're interested, this link will take you to quite an extraordinary article on how boron can often be extremely effective in reducing or eliminating arthritic pain.

Hi @Elmer B Fuddled -- I would have to respectfully disagree with this. I hear where you're coming from, and I'm not sure healing can be 100%, but I think a lot of at least partial healing is possible. I think a person has to go outside conventional medicine and traditional psychotherapy to...

My understanding is that not a single taxpayer dollar is being used to bail out these banks. All deposits, even those that are not insured, will be paid to bank customers from various funds such as the FDIC, and other large banks pooling their resources to make sure smaller regional banks stay...

I'm sure you'll disagree, but the world of "science" is a pretty weird place in a lot of ways. It often can't see things that are literally staring it in the face. The world of science reminds me of the adage, the mind is a useful servant, but a very bad master.

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.

Hi @crescentsky -- I hear ya. Isn't it interesting some of the "deals" we're willing to make with the "Universe" in exchange for no more tinnitus. One scenario that comes to mind for me is, I'd be willing to give up every single one of my possessions (including my clothes and money), be put...

Hi @shasta0863 -- Did your tinnitus spike from Sensodyne ever subside? I hope so!

@Juan, you may not be familiar with American politics, but it makes no sense to blame Biden (a Democrat) for the oil drilling that's currently going on. Democrat Jimmy Carter first installed solar panels on the White House while he was in office in the late 1970's. It was mostly a symbolic...

Hi @Mentos -- I haven't been following this thread closely, but if you're looking for compounds that help with neuroprotection and treating neurological disorders, you may want to look into Methylene Blue. I've been experimenting with it recently, and so far it's feeling like a game changer for...

@TeslaGuy -- You might find this tidbit interesting. Hey @MindOverMatter, @ZFire -- I guess this would be in sort of a FWIW category. -- I ran across some information a few years ago about some spiritual masters who have missions that require a great longevity, reaching ages into the...

Hey @Jammer, I must say, you have quite the talent for writing "scathing prose". Of course, you couldn't ask for a better subject to be the object of that prose. I love it! :D

I have a bigger problem with airplanes than motorbikes. Noisy airplanes often linger for long periods of time as they "sight see" over an area, whereas motorbikes tend to be gone much sooner. I hope a day comes where there will be a greater awareness of the dangers and detrimental effects of...

Hi @Sironketchup -- That may be the case for some people, perhaps even most people. But a single 25 mg dose of Promethazine gave me catastrophic tinnitus, along with other debilitating "side effects". If a person decides to try Promethazine, I would suggest starting out at an extremely low trial...

Hi @DutchMelvin -- There are a number of references on this forum of people using diluted apple cider vinegar drops in their ears [one story at this link: I Killed the Ringing. It Has Been 3 Weeks of Silence.] There's also an especially INTRIGUING POST by a man who claims garlic mullein oil made...

Hi @momus -- I ran across short paragraph (below) in some spiritual literature many years ago, and I've thought about it often since I first read it. It probably won't set well with some who believe world peace is attainable, but it seems applicable to some of the things you mentioned. It...

Because of the potential "side effects", some of which can be fairly catastrophic.

I recall a discussion on a thread 2-3 years ago where two different members mentioned the same scene in the same movie that gave them tinnitus. Movies are risky because of how loud they can be, especially for those with compromised ears.

Hi @Audigo -- There's a lot of political and financial interests involved in Lyme testing. I hope you're not getting the conventional test done by most doctors and health care facilities, which is notoriously unreliable. I would encourage you to research Lyme testing, and which ones are the...

Hi @Wrfortiscue -- Are you saying you're experiencing a piercing sensation while doing some sound therapy? It doesn't seem to me that would be good, and should never be the case.

Hi @sova -- The following article - Methylene Blue: Benefits, Dosing, Where To Buy, And More! - says Methylene Blue can increase dopamine levels, which is what you say improved your tinnitus by supplementing with tyrosine. How Methylene Blue Works In The Brain Methylene blue works in the brain...

Hi @Brian Newman -- Thanks for your insightful post. I was curious however; why would you hate to admit that sound therapy helped your loudness hyperacusis?

Hi @James Connelly -- I've been doing a fair amount of research on Methylene Blue (MB) recently, and have never run across anybody putting it directly into the ears. From what I've been able to gather however, I doubt that it would be harmful, especially if used in very small concentrations...

Hi @Audiofail -- Sorry to hear about ear injury and subsequent tinnitus. Regarding Ciprodex, I would avoid it like the plague. There are many stories on this forum of people getting (or exacerbating) tinnitus by using various kinds of drug based ear drops. Not only are they dangerous, but in...

Hi @Artemis2K -- There are a lot of "warnings" published in mainstream media about the toxicity of taking too much Vitamin D. Most of it is overhyped. Any toxicity from high levels of Vitamin D intake is almost entirely offset or ameliorated by taking plenty of Vitamin K2. Many Vitamin D...

The Russians certainly did believe Russian speaking Ukrainians would welcome them as liberators. To their shock and dismay, this did not happen, with Russian speaking Ukrainians every bit as much resisting the Russian invasion as everybody else. Which shouldn't have been surprising. Why would...

Hi @Uklawyer -- I get regular emails from Orthomolecular Medicine, and one of their important contributors is Thomas Levy, MD, whose innovative and intriguing work I've been familiar with for many years (he's done tons of research on Vit. C therapy). He wrote an article on Methylene Blue which...

Interesting comments--which I agree with--by Mitch McConnell, Republican Senate Minority leader. I truly believe those advocating for abandoning Ukraine for the sake of "saving money" is a good example of "penny wise, pound foolish." Mitch McConnell tells U.S. to ‘wake up’ to threat of Russia...

Hi @DaveFromChicago -- That actually sounds pretty similar to when I took the single dose of Promethazine that gave me my tinnitus five years ago. Ever since then I've been looking for ways to calm my brain and nervous system down. I recently started taking a supplement (drug) called methylene...

Hi @ErikaS -- I was looking into methylene blue a couple weeks ago, did a search here on Tinnitus Talk, and came across your reference to it. I was wondering if you ever followed up on trying it, and what your experience was. I bought my own 100 ml bottle on Amazon for $26.95, and started...

Hi @fishbone -- That's the way I saw it. And I applaud anybody on this forum who does their best to inspire others with their own success. Perhaps sometimes it doesn't come across as they had hoped, but I think it most cases, it behooves us to give them the benefit of the doubt. And if offended...

Hi @ZFire -- Thanks for so many of your points, most of which I feel are spot on. When I see your posts, I often feel sort of relieved to not have to take the time to make the very same points! ;) I believe your above point is particularly important however, so I guess I'll chime in. Some...

Hey @TeslaGuy -- You may want to check out this somewhat sobering article. -- BTW, I applaud your inclination to try various supplements to see how they effect you. I've been at it for years! Analysis of 22 NMN Products Finds 14 Contain <1% NMN - Discussion

Hey @Jammer -- Great list, and so many more that could be added. Here's the one that is foremost in my mind. First President ever to actively solicit racist, violent, right-wing, nationalist organizations to serve as his own private militia. He used them and their cohorts to attack the Capitol...

Hi guys. If there's one take away for me about the whole subject of ototoxic drugs, it's that it would be wise to proceed very cautiously with any medication one is considering. My tinnitus started with a single 25 mg dose of a supposedly relatively benign drug called Promethazine. I later...

Hi @TeslaGuy -- Interesting conversation. I've been researching optimal health and longevity for quite some time, and find it interesting that you've not mentioned anything Sinclair has had to say about nutrition and environmental pollutants, both of which I feel are critical factors. Perhaps he...

Hi @notin4u -- I'm sorry to hear you're going through this tinnitus experience at such a young age. But I do believe there's potential for it to improve over time, even though you'll likely have to be quite vigilant about not aggravating it in future years. One thing to mention about your Dr...

I really like the YouTube videos by Dr. Eric Berg. He's into ketogenic diet, plus his videos are full of innumerable tidbits and information on many health related issues.

Hi @TLion -- A single dose of Promethazine on February 4, 2018 gave me chronic tinnitus. -- So sorry to hear how much you're struggling, especially with 4 little ones to take care of.
