it wasn't really tinnitus that ruined my life, it was noxacusis and muffled hearing.

Even though both have gotten better after 6-7 months I can't go back to my previous state of existence with school and communities I was apart of.
 
I feel you, bro. I feel like I'm on the same path.

It's depressing man. I still have extreme anxiety. I don't know how to interact with people IRL anymore, or know how to talk to them.

I know if Frequency is successful and/or my tinnitus is killed, I would celebrate like my old self, but the damage to just about every meaningful relationship (friend, girl, family, etc..) is beyond done. Nobody recognizes me anymore.
 
I had none of what you had before noxacusis, just hope.

The 2.5 months
November to - Jan 2018 before I joined the forum I had horrifying noise induced pain and loudness amplfiication and muffled hearing and whistling tinnitus and a drone noise in my head.

@Contrast - why not?

@IAmCalifornia - the family bond will remain strong. My mom messaged me today about moving home (I live in a different country to my family) and she said "blood is thicker than water". Dammit man, I nearly cried. You can make new friends and meet a new girl.
long before I had a tinnitus I had a history of mental health issues that went largely unaddressed and still are, lol.

I was never a normal human being and frankly I don't want to be.
 
i'm not in the mood for sharing my damn story, it's pathetic the first week of college and promise of a better life ending abruptly due to noxacusis. doctors told my hearing was perfect.
 
anyone who mentions the legitimate research of Charlie Liberman on hidden hearing loss is banned from /r/tinnitus

I can always wait a few days and make a new alt on reddit, the same can't be said about facebook that requires phone ver.
 
Yeah, I think you said you've got autism.

I definitely do, too.

Average people live average lives, it's more fun to be different.
yes I have autism, Autism is great, but not when your ears are fucked with it, I also have borderline personality disorder which is questionably diagnosed. Someone even told me I have bipolarism. It's certain autism isn't the only issue as autism cannot explain an emotional rollercoaster and rapid highs and lows.

The whole idea my mind is fucked from shit parenting

I don't want to talk about my health issues in public, if you want to continue please talk to me in private.
 
MPP should declare war on /r/tinnitus and make memes to diss them.
I already have, believe it or not but it's a solo project. I'm working on a new alt-army and organizing them.

What most people don't know is that despite being a habituation-shilling hellscape, most of the users have grown more sour to it thanks to the work of users like expertasw1 and thedanishgirl. The mods do not represent the userbase anymore. Many people left r/tinnitus for greener pastures like r/tinnitusresearch, which is almost as /mpp/ as mpp.

With a couple alts, and the fact Mutebutton is around the corner, r/tinnitus is ripe for conversion.
 
I am so f*cked it's straightout scary, who in the world knew my life would end up like this.
 
I don't care anymore, I'm numb in response to pain excluding cochlear noiception then I cry like a bitch.
 
When I lost my music I lost my soul and my deepest abilities to feel.
I currently live in the audacious dream that my music will someday be fully restored, probably naive and self-deceiving, KMN pls.

what happens if you try to listen to music?

abnormal amplification of noise? Pain? tinnitus reacting?

I only get (relatively minor) abnormal amplification and pain when sounds are too loud.
The music sounds distorted (due to hearing loss) and simply doesn't sound as it should. As an illustration, I can constantly pick out exact sound bits that are "missing" in tracks that I know well.
Plus of course shrieking tinnitus on top.

for me almost any sound would cause fulless ache in my right ear, but the pain would have a cap unless things got really loud.
 
Lemme guess, Bhima banned you for trying to actually help other usrs? lmao she's up there with Gallowbob when it comes to shit mods.
Yuuuuuup.

"from Bhima[M] via /r/tinnitus sent 4 days ago

I am not willing to lift your ban because so much of your participation in our community violated our participation guidelines. You seem to be fixated on playing the role of internet doctor and that's unacceptable."


I told someone to got A&E and say they were exposed to a fire alarm, rather than a rock concert, and ask for prednisone. That was "deceiving doctors".

I also answered a question about a cure with mentions of neuromod, fx-322 and things that could hep like prednisone, serc, HBOT, ginko, magnesium, melatonin. 8 upvotes.
 
Absolutely. "Playing internet doctor". I didn't sit there and lay out a drug regimen, I mentioned they could/should ask for things that could help them early on. I am glad the view here is the same as mine.

Who down with M.P.P?
