I don't get why anyone would combine screenshot/screen recording software with image manipulate and other editing tools.
I can crop printscreen anything I want and open it an an external program.
That's the problem with software today. One program is meant to do 50,000 different task.
I'd rather have a suite of programs each doing one group of task instead of some bloated enterprise program with a bajillion options.

I'm making a back up of the almost all complete archive
The insanely large filesize is due to the Sparkhealthmedia/Zenith Labs videos. If it was not for them this document would only be like 15mb lmao.

Do you find it interesting that a lot of new people are showing up making comments that specifically seem targeted against our MPP culture?

Extremely. That's why I was wondering if this was linked to facebook or something. In the past when people stumbled onto MPP it was always "what is this hurr durr" and then attacking it. Funny how accounts with like, three comments total are showing up out of nowhere.

It's something for a DM you can ignore.

That's not how CBT, TRT counselling works @JohnAdams Since you have never had tinnitus counselling and @Vicious99 I and many others have I will enlighten you and the rest of non believers. I know your mind cannot be changed and one of the main reasons for this: the majority of non believers in tinnitus treatment, do not have severe debilitating tinnitus that affects their life profoundly. Most (not all) are still able to work, at school or university. If it did I assure you that you would want to try counselling, medication etc and wouldn't be so dismissive of these treatments.
Tinnitus comes in many forms and intensities and no two people will experience it the same. If hyperacusis is present, which is often the case with "Noise induce tinnitus" it can complicate matters further. It is true that with time a lot of people do habituate to tinnitus and hyperacusis often improves. This process can take anywhere from three to eighteen months and longer to occur but there is no absolute certainty this will happen. Some people may need professional help with a Hearing Therapist or Audiologist that specialises in tinnitus and hyperacusis management and treatment. This can included: counselling, sound therapy and medication. Used individually or in combination.
The effects of tinnitus can be very debilitating for some people. At first the Therapist discusses with the patient how the tinnitus makes them feel and how it has impacted on their life. Often people say they have lost interest in the things they once liked doing, which is perfectly understandable. The main goal is to gradually help them to look at life differently and with a more positive outlook. Over time the negative thinking that is often associated with tinnitus and hyperacusis is gradually dispelled and demystified. The Hearing Therapist does this in a controlled and precise manner so that the patient feels relaxed and not pressured.
When I have spoken to people in distress with tinnitus it is not unusual to be told: "If I could only get my life back". "My life used to be perfect". "I keep looking at peoples ears and wondering what my life used to be like". "If I could only hear silence again". And so on.
When someone gets loud intrusive tinnitus with or without hyperacusis, in an instant their world has been turned upside down. Some go through periods of stress, anxiety even depression and yearn for the way life was before the onset. They need time to adjust and to accept this new anomaly in their life. Some have an easier time than others at habituating, so may not need the help of a tinnitus counselling. For some that find the tinnitus and hyperacusis severely intrusive TRT and CBT can prove to be helpful. It all depends on the individual, their emotional makeup and the severity of the condition because we are all different. It is for this reason these treatments can take up to two years for a person to adjust to a different way of life and often with a positive outcome.

Fair enough. That being said, I don't think that we need to be spending money on researching it when there is the promise of pharmaceutical interventions on the horizon.
The thing that makes me upset is the continued description of CBT as a treatment for tinnitus. Tinnitus is the perception of noise when there is none. That is the scientific definition. Psychotherapy doesn't treat that perception of noise, it does exactly, for some, what you just described, and that does not include reducing the ringing.
Also, the leading shrinks in this field are sorta tyrants. The absolute best intervention I have found that works for me is curcumin/turmeric, and I had to discover that on my own. The leading shrinks say don't recommend supplements, which for some, and even only a small minority, could be the difference in functionally well and losing their job and maybe even their family.
Imma jump in, too.
There is a difference between sending people with anxiety and panic attacks to see a therapist and sending people with tinnitus to see a therapist implying they have anxiety or otherwise they would not be bothered by tinnitus.
Good psychiatrists who genuinely want to help will always do their best to understand if you actually have a mental disorder or not, and will admit they can't help if they see you don't, but not every doctor is a good doctor.
What is dangerous is that the rest of them just prescribe meds by default not caring at all that wrong therapy could cause more harm than good to people who did not need psych meds in the first place.
There is no drug dealer in your neighbourhood that could destroy your life as fast as a bad doctor could.

I am pleased that you found something that helps you because we are all different and tinnitus is a learning curve. You are quite right, tinnitus counselling is Psychotherapy but please don't think this treatment cannot reduce the ringing because it can or at least one's perception of it, therefore it is reduced. Tinnitus, as I have often said is 90% mental. By this I mean: it is intrinsically linked to our mental and emotional wellbeing. The more one focuses on it particularly those new to tinnitus the louder it becomes. Stress makes tinnitus worse and tinnitus makes stress worse. If the stress and anxiety aren't managed a person can find themselves slipping into depression. Good quality tinnitus counselling as I have explained in my post above can help immensely in removing the negative thinking that is often associated with tinnitus. Therefore, over time negative thinking is dispelled and demystified and replaced with positive thinking. One will find the tinnitus is gradually pushed into the background and therefore the tinnitus noise becomes less intrusive.

Laughter and maintaining a sense of humour is so important with this affliction.
Some false "therapies" are just so easy to laugh at because they're a complete joke, touted by academic rejects who didn't have the grades to do something meaningful.
But having said that, it's no joke when they steal funding away from research that could result in treatments that could actually help us.
