    How to Stop the Progression of Mild Hyperacusis?

    Yeah, that's how I got better (sans the white noise) Sometimes this condition reminds me of games like Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy or Jump King, except without the pit or the bog — there is no bottom.

    How to Stop the Progression of Mild Hyperacusis?

    IMO, there is no such thing as overprotection. Plenty of sound gets through whether you let it or not. I developed hyperacusis with symptoms nearly identical to those described by the original poster in December 2021. Fortunately, it improved within about a month. However, it returned in June...

    An uneasy cease-fire. I almost never experience pain, and rarely experience loudness symptoms. I can tolerate (though it still bothers me) more or less anything with ear protection. But I know I'm under constant threat of getting worse again. I haven't dared get back into music.

    Tinnitus Gone After Starting on Parkinson's Disease Medication!

    He puts his name as "Neil Bauman, Ph.D". He has a Master's degree in Theology and two PhDs, one in Forestry and the other in Ancient Astronomy. A little bit dishonest if you ask me.

    Hyperacusis Spikes After Trying to Start Living Normally

    That experience applies the vast majority of hyperacusics, we call it a 'setback'. You went too fast. You should push your limits ever so slowly and gently, painfully slowly. Eventually, (and that's the key word) you'll be able to tolerate normal noise that you never could now.

    I'd wager you were able to stop protecting so much because your tolerance improved, not the other way around. That said, it's of course great news you're feeling better.

    Overprotection is a myth crafted by TRT proponents in order to frame severe patients as "not trying hard enough".

    Foam earplugs? You're supposed to twizzle them up, slip them in and let them expand. Take them out slowly, letting the air escape from behind. Do not yank them out - I hurt my eardrums that way a bunch of times with them before T+H.
