They're fine. Thank you for your concern.

It's been a few weeks since I've really browsed these forums. I think that's for the best. I'm still listening to music. I'm still gaming. I'm still going out and doing stuff. https://fpgaminer.github.io/vip-html5-player/#VIP:Civilization_III_-_Stars_Full...

Try not to think about tinnitus too much. Whenever my tinnitus is bothering me, I stop what I'm doing, get a glass of water and breathe for a few moments or minutes. Sometimes I put on some soft piano music or something similar too. Try to live as similarly to before you had tinnitus as possible.

Saw endgame the other day. Ears are fine. Gotta live your life! =O

I have 2 types of tinnitus as well. My "EEeEeEeEe" spikes occasionally with louder sounds, but has mostly faded away. On the other hand the high-pitched tone varies in and out of intensity with background noise. Initially, the etching sound was intense, but it faded over several weeks...

T is rough sometimes. You'll have your good days and your bad days, but it's important to not let T live your life. I try to think of mine like a noisy roommate; sometimes they're a good neighbor, and other times? Well, yeah. I'm a little more conscientious about loud music, sound, movie...

T is a little rough after the movies yesterday, manageable. R ear overshadow the left ear which is actually kind of a nice break.

Moderate. I have 2 types of tinnitus sounds in my left and right ears. They tend to drown each other out. I'm somewhat habituating to my left ear (coil-whine) but the clicking sort of cracking "EeEEeEeEee" has been coming back a little lately. I just came back from the movies (Shazam) but it...

Finally starting to get 6-8 hours of sleep again. T varies still, but SLEEP. Woo xD

I've been getting about 5-6 hours on average. It's alright. It'd be nice to get 8 hours, but it's been than 2-3.

Read a chapter of American Gods. Did some volunteer work. 2-3/10 T after a 5-6/10 post-volunteer spike; not so bad.

Hey Momo, You can still go out to noisy locations. Just don't be afraid to bring ear plugs or leave a little early. I think that Tinnitus varies, and it will always vary. I went out the other day and did some volunteer work and my T spiked to a 5-6/10 afterwards. Today it's a 2-3/10. The...

It varies. Try not to think about it. I had several days at a about a 1-2 /10and then after doing some semi-strenuous volunteer work today as a porter and a nap it's at about a 5-6/10. Still, listening to some music and trying to drown it out. I didn't notice it at all until the volunteer...

Up and down sort of day. T was a little worse. Trying to remember to breathe and listen to music. Very much been in a classic rock mood!

T still pretty low. Luckily, no dental work to be done :D Getting used to this for the most part.

My ENT was frustrated and annoyed. He had apparently seen 3 tinnitus diagnosis' that day back-back-back and wasn't in a particularly great mood. I sympathize to some extent, but telling someone (I'm 29) that their hearing is what they would expect to see in a 40/50 year old ... was rough, and...

My mother was walking our terrier the other morning when another dog, maybe a bulldog/pit, attacked them. The leash twisted around her leg and tripped her. Winnie is fine b/c my mom intervened, but it cost her. Surgery Friday =/. Least walking Winnie in the morning will help me with my T a...

Sleep's been kinda rough lately, 5-6 hours or so. My mom broke her wrist :/ Things are going to slow down for a while.

If you've gotten through 2-3 years worth of college before T then it doesn't stand a chance. Have some confidence and faith in yourself. My main suggestion would be focus on masking it rather than obsessing about it. You'll get through this. In fact, we're all going to get through this, so...

When I was young at summer camp I slipped on the diving board (luckily not a high one) and bounced off. I wanted to die of embarrassment. I figured the best way was to just pretend it didn't happen and continue to run around and jump off again. I don't think many people noticed, or if they...

Forgiveness is a personal choice. Rather than forgiveness I've chosen to focus on acceptance. It's been a longer month than most, but I'm starting to gain a habituated mentality. Something I've realized is that there are a lot of sounds that mask my tinnitus and being busy and active -- going...

Thinking about my T less & less. It's never left, but I'm working on keeping better company and staying busier.

The less time you dedicate to thinking about it the better. I haven't really thought about it tonight. I'm thinking more about people I want to see, things I want to do. Just cracked open a hard cider n listening to some music. Don't let it own you. Try and keep yourself busy.

There's a lot of masking noise when playing video game. It varies from game-game of course, but generally so long as the volume is at a reasonable level it's fine. There are usually multiple types of sound from games these days whether we're talking music, environment, background noise...

Music (lower volumes), a nice night out friends or a new date, gaming. The more occupied I am the better.

T was a little worse today. I'll take my good days when I can get them =P

T was mostly quiet today for the 2nd hangout/date thing. Now to figure out whether to stay friends or what >.<'' It's complicated.

We had hail yesterday in the DMV area. It only lasted a few minutes, but it was strangely uplifting.

I'm at a low 2-3/10 today. It's actually somewhat peaceful. I talked to some friends I haven't seen in a while.

Today has been extremely rainy. It's been nice in a way.

These forums are definitely helpful, and it's good to be positive, but I'm not going to waste time obsessing over my T and various snake-oil treatments and cures. If there's anything I've learned it's that T is different for everyone. T is absolutely a devastating condition; it's frustrating...

I realized that I have 2 types of tinnitus; a high-pitched tone in my left ear and a clicking in my right ear. For the first few days the clicking in my right ear was in overdrive. Getting out of bed was rough. Just rustling in my covers set off a ton of clicking. After a day of that I went...

It's been about a week. Things are getting slightly more manageable. Don't lose hope!

The ENT said that there was a low chance that there could be some sort of benign growth in my ear. That's what the MRI is meant to check in on. My little brother had one when he was younger and it was dealt with. They also said that Debrox once a week was fine. I'm just trying not to pay it...

Today's been a little easier than yesterday. Listening to chill-step and giving my dog hugs.

Hi everyone, It's been years since I've been on a forum. It's kind of nostalgic and fun in its own way. This past week my hearing loss hit a threshold. I went to seen an audiologist and an ENT and am setting up an MRI this next week. I'm doing my best to look at my Tinnitus as a challenge...
