    Suicidal

    I was already doing really bad with hyperacusis, and now my friend's phone went off full blast near to me and it hurts so damn much. Even typing on this keyboard is a nightmare. I hate this existence. Just put me in a cold silent dark room to sleep until we have a cure for this bullshit.

    Chronic Ear Infections After Tinnitus Onset

    Oh my god, I am having the same issue. This is my third infection in as many months, and 3rd round of antibiotics. They started out of nowhere in last November.

    Noted @Damocles. I think what helps foam earplugs being hygienic is that you dispose them after every use. I've been guilty of using a single pair more than once - won't do it now.

    How to Prevent Ear Infections When Wearing Earplugs for Prolonged Periods of Time?

    Hey @Brian Newman, bumping this thread up. Did you find a solution to this? I am in a similar boat getting back to back ear infections (I'll attribute that to regular earplug usage given bad hyperacusis).

    @Steph1710 Thanks for sharing. What was your infection like? Did you have pain? I do have pain (Which is substantially different from my regular H pain). And how long did they take to start clearing up? It's been 5 days now since this second one and it's still there. I think the 1st one didn't...

    @Tavia R Yes, I did read it. It was amazing. Thank you! Emotionally, I am okay I guess. But at the end of the day, I just get some exhausted from this pain that even moving in my bed is hard. I have kind of accepted it, but still, it just hurts so much.

    To Those Who Are Now or Have Been Working from Home, How Are You Dealing with Conference Calls?

    I use my earmuffs while taking calls on my iPhone speakerphone. Works well. Or a bit of cotton and sometimes earplugs. Can't talk without anything in between the phone and my ears even on the lowest volume or for a second.
