This is still an on/off thing for me, but the trend seems upward for me or maybe I'm not noticing it as much. My sound tolerance has greatly improve since then, so I'm staying positive and hopeful.
It always give me a sign of relief that I'm not the only one who has experienced these bizarre symptoms. It makes me handle the situation a lot better now knowing that I'm not alone. I was in a constant state of panic and distress when all this stuff started. I had no idea what was going on.
It sure is an on/off thing for me as well. Some sounds/frequency are more annoying than others (and whether I am in control of the sound myself), but it can change a whole lot from day to day.
But, the good thing is, when measured over time, the trend is upwards. It can, and for most will, get better and improve a lot, but it is a slow process - with pretty much unavoidable setbacks (in my experience).
Btw, I've experienced the same issues as you early on with the peeing.
Wind noise can still bother from time to time, depending on the wind of course, but also how I feel that day.
But in general tolerance is getting stronger, and less distortions. This is where the focus should be - on the progress.
On a bad day, remember the good days, and that you are not back to square one. This process is not a straight line. Don't let the negative feelings overwhelm you. Rather try to distract yourself with something you can relate to in a positive way. Overfocusing the situation, thinking you are getting worse/"where will this end" an so on, will only make it worse to cope with. It is usually not rational thinking.
@Wrfortiscue, I didn't "fix it". It's an ongoing process
If I can be comfortable in my own skin so to speak, and live with it without feeling it as such a burden that it removes all enjoyment in my life, I'm happy with that.
When you manage to get more and more of these days, that's a good sign of healing and/or habituation.
