I find it super frustrating that I'm trying to warn people about loud environments and using ear protection when in bars or concerts and not listening to music super loud in headphones and EVERYONE seems to think they know better than me. It's like... HELLO you aren't invincible
Anyone Find That Nobody Listens to You?

don´t bother . Its human nature . it´s called "human stupidity" and its infinity like Mr Einstein said .
MemberI've told my rave and musician friends to wear earplugs so they won't end up like me but they seem to shrug it off.
Oh well, like @tinnitube said, it's human nature. In my native language, we have a saying that goes "Nasa huli ang pagsisisi" which roughly translates to "Regret always comes at the end."

Arnt we all to some extent with noise induced T.
I met a guy today with 100% hearing loss in the left ear and 20% remaining in the right ear from shooting without hearing protection.
He still shoots without hearing protection!!!

Yup! Even my own brother who has played in a band for years still thinks ear plugs aren't necessary. Nobody thinks this will happen to them; I certainly didn't.

Yup.
Quoting myself from another post here:
"I find that my friends are very disrespectful of my condition too. I recently celebrated my birthday and I had music playing in the background. They turned the volume up to pretty loud, we had to yell just to hear each other so I turned it down, not even that much. They really disliked this action, despite knowing very well why I did it (They known about my ears for years). I had to turn the volume down throughout my entire party because they were always turning it up. They were testing me, and occasionally they say things like like "Get over yourself". This pisses me so badly off that I wish them a lifetime with tormenting T."

This is annoying when they do that. I really love music but unless you're dancing I don't see the point of putting it loud to the point that you have trouble having conversation... 70 dB is well enough in most case, more is only good for dancefloor
I agree...
With all the people going to many concerts and clubs all the time and they will end up having nothing wrong with ears or whatsoever...
To me I really feel this is bad luck ! Why did I get this S*** ? Everyday I am asking myself this question...

yes , my case bad luck , always had care with my ears because I love classical music , indeed I dislike amplified music so I had always been to live acoustic shows playing classical .
Yea, same, literally one in a million. Make you ponder your life purpose though.
Anything other that living day-by-day is quite impossible for me...
Because I also have the question in my head : "What would I do if my T and H get worse ???"
For me it's "what would I be doing if I didnt have T"
I tried too turn it into a positive and do the things I thought I might be doing if things were less positive, hhmmmmm....
I can see for you it is new, the life with T...
But can you go out with friends and do stuffs like that ?
