With T if we're lucky; not with HL. Unless there's something we don't know about..
I'm more concerning about treating hearing loss and would like to argue that the most effective treatment for tinnitus is treating the hearing loss.
Yup. If effective bimodal stimulation or whatnot would be just a holdover thing for me.
But a very, very, very welcome one.
I kinda hope I become friends with someone born deaf so they can teach me their ways
Right now it's not super super bad. I just know I don't hear what I use too. By the time I'm like 30 it'll be really awful I believe.
so
i've had tinnitus for almost 4 weeks now been real shit but i guess it's life
three days ago i had a severe panic attack. after that my tinnitus went from a eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee to a weird fire alarm i guess you could say? like wind blowing very irregularly in my ears
it was the last day of my prednisone medication but i don't think they're linked. almost certain it's stress
is this what spikes feel like? first time dealing with one
i won't lie i'm pretty desesperate and that's saying a lot considering i'm praying for the fire alarm to go back to the obnoxious eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee which already felt like shit
been almost 3 days now and i don't see much difference. anyone experienced that? i thought spikes were just making regular tinnitus louder not add layers of sound on top of it

Sorry you are suffering. I sarcastically call it the "Tinnitus Honeymoon". You and your tinnitus are going to be very close, it's a long honeymoon. I'm not making light of your suffering it's just that humor seems to be essential in maintaining sanity.
When I was in your shape I found Magnesium Sulfate a little bit helpful in calming my nerves but not much. Any relief was welcome, I was desperate.
Hang in there, don't panic, others have been there and you will make it. You may still have T but your ability to cope will improve.
I'm really sorry for your suffering and feel you pain.
Ps- my sounds tended to be perceived as one multi tone sound after a long time.
hey thanks bud
yeah i got that there was a long and hard acclimatation period. i'm blessed that it's rather recent so there's def. lot of room for improvement but also left alone in the dark when it comes to risks of it worsening for little reason at such early onsets
just didn't expect it to be such a disability i'd have to worry about 24/7 forever
doing my best to stay overly positive despise my occasional panic attacks now that i fully understand how important stress and anxiety are when it comes to getting better
ironically it's when you're in the worst palce that you sometimes make the best decisions.
never been motivated more than now to lose weight and reduce unhealthy habits
fight or flight instincts but running away isn't an option this time i guess
True for me. T doesn't budge for anyone, it forces us to change. My life is different than what it was before T and I can say some of the changes are for the better. If life gives you lemons make lemonade?
Your thinking is better than mine was at your early stage. Keep the positive mental attitude and so will I.
I had a few isolated days towards the beginning where it was lower pitch and way easier to deal with. But not recently no...
How are you doing friend?
Well I'm just coming out of a 5 month spike, that caused me to start posting here. I had super high pitch reactive T and loud static which seems to be coming down. Thanks for asking. I will say that it took me a good 15 months before I started to see a shift in it.
Ya I thought I was fucking DONE FOR. I was pretty much drunk from July until last week. I can't even pin point the cause other than stress!
Wow. Is that how you make it through sometimes? Alcohol? (Not judging one iota, this is the toughest sh!t on Earth, and sometimes I do the same myself).
I didn't drink for the first year I got T because it just made me feel so anxious because It was non-stop shrill high pitch. I needed to feel something other then anxiety when the spike started so I got meds from my Dr.(didn't take them) and hit the bottle. It was probably a poor choice, but it helped me sleep.
Right now my T is probably at a 2/10. The shrill shriek is v. low and it's just some easily ignorable static. I'll add that played live music for 10 years, attended 100's of shows and house parties. I think I can get heal up given enough time. and hopefully you can too
Thank you.
Yeah. As we conversed previously we both find static a million times easier to deal with than high pitched shrieking.
How long did it take you to see significant improvement? Is that 15 months from onset?
I'd say it was about that. I'd get like one good day every 2 weeks, and then that became more frequent. I still have piss poor days, but I try to live in the now as much as I can.
