I don't want to be a negative nancy, but just for the heck of it, I checked out the development curve and progression of other drugs, I'm not sure if buy the hype for cure anymore. When you've read a bunch of press releases about many drug treatments, they're all the same; promising much like it's the best thing ever and it's hopefully gonna be on the market soon and so on. Yes, sometimes they even make a literal breakthrough, but the cold fact is that it still would be years away. Honestly, I'd say 4-6 years and that's long enough to ruin one's life.
I'm at the 8 month mark now and I'm so done already, simply put: life just isn't fun anymore, it's a damn chore, it shouldn't be this way, it's not healthy in any way, shape or form. Losing your silence really is like losing 90% of your life, because most of the life is based on images and ideas in your head and once you cannot think, relax, day dream in peace, life mostly becomes just what is literally physically in front of you at the time, nothing else. And forget weekends and holidays, they just don't exist for you, unless you fill them up with full of distractions, but then it's like being at work again.
I don't want to make anybody sad because hope is only that we got, but I think the cold harsh truth is that the earliest that you would get the cure is at least 4 years from now. You think these your 6 months have been bad? Well it's that, but 8 times longer. How about no.

I hate tinnitus a lot and was suicidal for a while over it but now I just hate it, along with my other health problems. Basically, getting older sucks no matter how you slice it. I just bear it at this point though.

Even if we have to wait for 10 years it's just gonna be a bad memory. I know it's not easy but try to manage and take the best out of this situation, it's too stupid to give up now and even if it sounds cliché it's somehow true. We can't change the past, but maybe we can dream of a future where we could fokin hear correctly again, right ? in the worst case we'll just lose a bit of time of enjoying death

The Back to Silence post except run through the 0w0 generator.:
Hewwo,
I weawnyed a technyique fwom onye of ouw fewwow postews hewe and to me it's been a cuwe. I have nyot fewt this good about my T in 40 yeaws. My T is woud, in both eaws, it changes fwequencies, sometimes accompanyied by H, it spikes nyow and then, and it's hewe fow good. I've panyicked uvw it, cwied uvw it, begged doctows to hewp me, had MWI's, X Ways, eaw cweanyings etc.... But that is aww I'm going to say about my T. I am donye descwibing it. And watewy I've been fwee of having to wisten to it.
It's been a coupwe months and nyow I feew confident that this is my cuwe aftew yeaws and yeaws of twying to ignyowe my T, ow cuvw it up, ow medicate it, ow acupwessuwe it... etc... I twied evewything. Aww the way back to 1974. I even had to cancew my ENT appointment I waited 2 months fow. The weceptionyist asked, "Awe you suwe you want to cancew?" I said, "Yes, it's onwy 3 days away but I have nyo weaw compwaint." She said, "Weww, good fow you ;;w;; "
I'm so thankfuw fow this fowum. If I hadn't come hewe, I'd stiww be "Wistenying fow" my T.
I'm the wast pewson in the wowwd that wouwd have thought that a wittwe sewf-tawk couwd be the answew. But aftew my wast wound of medication, acupwessuwe, exewcises, doctow visits and masking, I was weady to twy anything.
Thewe is nyo nyame fow this technyique so I'ww caww it the 40 Yeaw Cuwe fow wack of a bettew nyame.
The technyique takes onwy TWO seconds. If I do it 40 times a day, that's wess than a totaw of onye and a hawf minyutes a day ;;w;; Aftew a few weeks of doing it, I've had bettew than gweat success. I haven't even had to do it today and it's nyow wunchtime. Nyo, I have NyOT heawd my T today. I onwy have to do it 2 ow 3 times a day nyow.
I'm nyot wowking up this post to wead to a commewciaw ;;w;; haha Nyo, I'm nyot sewwing anything. I'm just anyothew guy hewe on the fowum. I want you to knyow how BAD my T was, how wong I enduwed and suffewed, and how good I feew nyow. My T was bwought on fwom pwaying awfuwwy woud music when I was a teenyagew, awso fwom taking aww kinds of stwong pwescwiption migwainye medicinye when I was young. I'm 56 yeaws owd, can you imaginye how GOOD it feews to be wid of T?
I have to be honyest, if I wisten FOW my T, it appeaws. Ovew the yeaws it's come and gonye but watewy I was gwowing tiwed of waiting fow habituation and feewing stwessed out. A whiwe back I was going to stowes wooking fow the pewfect wittwe MP3 pwayew I couwd weaw aww day wong wistenying to ocean sounds. I did nyot wike that idea much, and about that time, I saw a post hewe on the fowum that twuwy changed my wife. They towd about the technyique of wediwecting my thoughts fwom the SOUND of my T to my WESPONSE to my T. I wead it and thought, Ya Ya, psycho babbwe, anyothew nyew cuwe, mind-uvw-mattew, etc... I guess you couwd say I had a sad and nyegative outwook. Thank goodnyess fow my despewation, because thewe was nyowhewe weft fow me to go so I gave it a good twy.
Befowe I discuvwed the 40 Yeaw Cuwe, evewy mownying I was getting up, and the T was thewe, aftew bweakfast time I was awweady whipped out having to wisten to it. And aww day wong I'd be saying to mysewf, "Why me? Why is it so woud? I wish it wouwd just get a wittwe quietew. If it's wowse tomowwow I don't knyow what I'ww do. Why can't the doctow do something? It's so woud, nyobody knyows what this is wike ;;w;; " I was measuwing my T.
I stopped tawking to mysewf wike that. But stopping the "T Tawk" wasn't enyough. It has to be wepwaced by something ewse when I do heaw the T. So I stawted saying, "I heaw the T, it's making me nyewvous." Ow, "Thewe it is, I'm nyot as nyewvous as yestewday." Ow, "I heaw it, but I'm too busy to cawe." Ow, "Yes it's T, but I'm kind of happy and busy wight nyow." Ow even, "I heaw my T and I'm scawed." It's OK to be honyest. I nyoticed that I the mowe I wouwd descwibe my feewing about the T, instead of the vowume of the T, the wess and wess I was bothewed by it. The fiwst few days I thought it was too good to be twue, I nyoticed even in the showt pewiod of a week I found mysewf descwibing my wesponses wess and wess. Wow ;;w;; Weww, I suwewy wasn't going to test and faiw at this technyique by going backwawds and descwibing my T ;;w;; So hewe I am, and wawewy do I even heaw my T. If I think about Tinnyitus, I heaw it. But if I onwy measuwe my wesponse to it, I heaw it wess and wess uvw time. It took a coupwe months to get to a comfowtabwe spot whewe I can say that yes, 98% of my T is gonye.
Nyatuwawwy I want to compawe my T to pwevious vowume wevews to teww mysewf it's getting bettew, but that's the VEWY THING that makes it pop into my head. I wefuse to measuwe my T anymowe. I onwy measuwe my feewings towawd it when I heaw it.
A fwiend, who doesn't have T, towd me he thinks it's wike having bad eyesight and getting used to weawing gwasses. But T is nyot wike bad eyes. I weaw gwasses. Yes they can be bothewsome and nyot weawing them even mowe so. But T is intwusive and bothewsome and it dwuv me to despaiw many times in 4 decades. Aftew doing this nyew technyique I've discuvwed that taking action and sticking to it has been nyot just tweatment, but a cuwe fow me. I awso have to avoid woud sounds in evewyday wife.
I don't knyow what kind of mind twick this is, ow cognyitive thing... I'm nyot an eaw doctow... but I knyow I'ww be OK the west of today and pwobabwy tomowwow and why wouwdn't I feew gweat nyext yeaw? I hope youw T gets bettew and you don't have to wisten to it fow 40 yeaws. And if you've twied things that didn't seem to wowk, twy this. I didn't think anything wouwd hewp me. Good wuck ;;w;;

The day a cure for hearing loss comes I'm going to make a thread called
Back to Reality.
How science solved a life threatening condition
Back to Reality.
How science solved a life threatening condition
TFW you realize it is more economically profitable to invest in TRT and habituation research based on Pawel Jastreboff's monopoly on the tinnitus market, but you care more about helping the good people on Tinnitus Talk find real therapeutic treatments then selling out to corruption.
tfw Roland Scahette gives you a tinnitus test and shows lack of input from your auditory nerve.
here's a good copy pasta i made in the thread before he got deleted.
let us not say he was not red pilled

There is hope in the scientific world
Signal timing can provide temporarily relief for tinnitus
https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/new-university-of-michigan-tinnitus-discovery-—-signal-timing.2805/
Advances to repair hearing to possibly reliably reduce tinnitus 2023-2025 (hopefully) unless it fails https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/frequency-therapeutics-—-hearing-loss-regeneration.18889/page-45#post-344433
Curing hearing loss may be more complicated then just regenerating hair cells unfortunately
and requires synapse repair as well. late 2020's. (hopefully) unless once again if it fails.
http://www.otonomy.com/pipeline/hearing-loss-programs/
If you want to just get temporary reduction of tinnitus 2-3 years.
Want a possible cure/permanent reduction about 5-7 years
Then again their may be a horrifying chance that the TRT lobbyist at the American tinnitus association that spend all their budget on habituation research and TRT and completely ignore the evidence of reversing hearing loss reversing tinnitus, they might be right despite logic.
Most cochlear implants are shown to reduce tinnitus and top tinnitus researchers are mentioning it as possibility but their are some exceptions such as rare instances of CI's making tinnitus worse or few doing nothing. That is a mystery in the brain remapping in tinnitus that is not yet understood.
Example's of cochlear implants reducing tinnitus in the majority of cases
https://blog.medel.com/cochlear-implants-tinnitus-cure/
http://www.tinnitusjournal.com/articles/can-cochlear-implants-decrease-tinnitus.pdf
Right now the only things that have evidence to reduce the tinnitus volume temporarily are
Clonazepam, Melatonin and stress relief for sensori neural hearing loss. Probably any relaxent.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22626945
https://www.tinnitustalk.com/thread...al-especially-in-preventing-hearing-loss.401/
Truth isn't convenient, not one trial is guaranteed to pass. Just try to stay optimistic and don't give into the TRT snake oil.
and just maybe your tinnitus might spontaneously fade.

i had an ear ache all day in my left ear and I am scared.
i cannot conclude this is painful hyperacusis
i only once noticed a tinnitus spike which was not unsual.

Contrast's sites are the best thing to happen to MPP since his arrival in the first place.
I don't know what this will happen
but i have ideas to allow the animated gifs/images to move across the screen vertical or horizontal and the degree of speed
next i will try to implement a way to click on certain areas of the screen to trigger a hidden image/gif
images/gifs can be put on multiple tiles instead of just all or one
finally webm/mp4 support in the same tile effect but only 1 of 5 webms will be allowed to play audio and integrate if users want to combine webm with animated gifs.
