Of course the tinnitus god on that side of the world

Prat is too nice...:banghead:

I taped my fingers together yesterday to prevent ummm...
 
For all my dear friends on Tinnitus Talk,
here are two blues greats, Dr John & B.B.King with "There Must Be A Better World Somewhere."

Nobody deserves this 'better world' more than we do.

 
Difficult... but he sure came out to be amazing.
Top notch bloke... human being.
Self taught, self nurtured... and a remarkable kid, man, that David.
The world is better, this forsaken forum is better, thanks to Mr. D, Jazzer
Love you buddy

"My God - such adulation!
Marry Me - take me away from all this....x
(What am I saying - I - who adores women!)

Daniel - buddy - the feeling's mutual brother.
This shitty 'T' will not rob us of our camaraderie,
nor our sense of humour.
Not everybody on here displays that.
True friendship depends on reading between the lines - recognising qualities unspoken - the essence of a person.
You and I will never lose this to any petty misunderstanding brother, so
Kiss your lovely misus
Hug your adorable kids
And know that you are a great guy,"

Love you too my friend
And the rest of you lunatics too...
See you round the block.
 
Does anybody ever feel like this......?

Totally relating to this. The first 2 months I longed and hoped for my old life. After those 2 months I started habituating / finding a new life that manages to incorporate my T and VS (fortunately both just mild). I spend less time with myself and a lot more with other people now. Appreciating that a lot more.
 
The most crucial help and support we can have when we contract Tinnitus is that of our families.
We need to have our pain understood and accepted, and we desperately need to know that even with our 'noisy' head, we are still loveable.

Her designs are magnificent. Does she ship internationally?

She is a designer and digitiser for embroidery machinists.
She creates a design - makes it up - photographs the object - shows it in her Etsy Shop - and then sells her design.
She doesn't manufacture for sale I'm afraid.
Thanks for the enquiry ajc. x
 
Glad you're here friend.
Hope you're finding some good days this summer.

You too buddy.
My life is a pretty settled liveable routine.
I do not waste any time considering gizmos and gadgets, or hanging on a cliff edge awaiting a possible rescue attempt.
Life is now.
We have tinnitus.
We have to learn how to accept and adapt to it if we possibly can.
'Lenire' this - and 'Lenire' that......
It seems to have become the only thing on TT that anybody can talk about or even think about.
Not me mate.
Survival means developing methods to help us cope.
Conceptualising the problem,
chilling out with meditation...etc.....x
Perhaps I'm just weird ?????

We are a strange community indeed.

Probably due to the adverse effects of our condition... suicidal ideation, PTSD, anger, and total desperation.

The community can be loving and supportive and full of venom, spitefulness, and hate.
My audiogram puts me in a minority here of those who are properly f@cked and here to stay.
Everyday is a challenge but I am getting better at this.

Thank you friends and fellow sufferers for being here, and the staff who work tirelessly for free.

Wishing everybody relief and a brighter day...
