by "specific people", do you mean the people that are negative about

* anyone who uses headphones, or plays live music, etc
* anyone who disagrees with anything they believe to be dogma
* anyone who tries to challenge their irrational ideas with evidence-based data
* anyone who objects to the basic practice of copypasta of huge word-salad dumps that contain a bunch of unsubstantiated ideas?

?

If so, I quite agree.

They are taking a strange stance here.I would choose using headphones over micro suction any day.

Indeed. I am the person that has given you advice many times on the forum and tinnitus chat and by PM Messenger. I always knew you were ungrateful and to top it all you have no class....

You are unbelievable and there's something quite obviously wrong with you as a person. We all know this.

See when I notice that a large number of people have a problem with my behaviour or way of thinking, I self examine... And as hard as it may be sometimes I almost always reach the conclusion that I'm wrong and that they have a point. Then I better myself. I change.

You though? Not so. You come off as a broken robot. You blame everything on other people, you are incapable of having any kind of discussion without calling people "rude", talking about class and other irrelevant nonsense, just because someone asks a QUESTION about something you have written. It's the same thing happening over and over again as far as I've seen. Only the people you go off on change. YOU are the constant and YOU are the problem

Seems like you're stuck in a loop that you're blind to. Seems to me that there must have been something in your life that makes you so fast to judge, dismiss and start beef with random people on the internet over NOTHING. Talking about class, manners, all kinds of things that has NOTHING to do with what the person you're going off on has written.

For what it's worth, I am grateful for the advice you have given. However I found most of it to be inaccurate and irrelevant for me in my situation. But the way you conduct yourself on this forum, I find ridiculous. And yes, you probably picked up on that even though I did my best to play your game with all the niceties and "manners" that are so important to you. I'm not much of a master manipulator

TIP OF THE DAY

To stop Spotify giving you those annoying alerts about concerts by bands you love that you can no longer go to because of tinnitus, go to: Concerts - Settings and change your location to Ulan Bator.

WE COULDN'T FIND CONCERTS IN ULAN BATOR.

I've been looking over the first Lenire user reviews on Tinnitus Talk, and looking through this thread for how people who have tried Lenire feel about it. The results are underwhelming for sure, but I think it's mostly been more success than non-success. So I did some statistics based on site reviews, and another chart with anecdotes from these reviewers, and some on r/tinnitus but not on Tinnitus Talk. I divided the subject pool into 4 parts:

-Worsening: Tinnitus has worsened, probably as a result of Lenire.
-Not Improved: Subject didn't experience any definitive improvement from Lenire.
-Improved: Subject experienced some improvement. Whether it be less tinnitus variance, softer tones, less volume, etc.
-Great: Subject had great improvement as a result of Lenire.

Using these categories, here's what I got using reviews from Tinnitus Talk users only:

Using anecdotes from Lenire users, and another user on r/tinnitus, I can add 4 more improvements. I haven't found a second hand experience talked about where the person didn't improve, but maybe that's because the Lenire users don't want to discourage others. So if you're a Lenire user who talked to another one in the lobby who didn't experience an improvement, feel free to reply telling me about it.

Graph with anecdotes:

View attachment 32760

Not exactly rigorous but that's what I got so far. Lenire says they had a clinically significant improvement rate of 66%, and statistically significant improvement rate of 80%. As we add more data we climb closer to the 66% rate. Now why this number isn't reflected on Tinnitus Talk is probably for one of three reasons:

-We got statistically unlucky, and many who don't improve just happen to be Tinnitus Talk users, over representing the unlucky pool.
-Lenire doesn't work as well as Neuromod claims it does.
-There's another reason. Maybe people who use Tinnitus Talk are more likely to have loud invasive tinnitus, meaning they don't experience as much of a reduction as a moderate sufferer would. Also there's a lot of hearing loss on here, and the better your hearing, the more likely Lenire will help you.

Who would have known threefirefour is a Neuromod shill??

Ok I am 100% joking obviously. And I like your graph - thanks for your work.

Would you be able to share the usernames profiled?
