Stress
I am looking for some advice from a place of despair. I developed tinnitus over the course of four and a half years. After the initial nightmare, which included reactivity and hyperacusis, I recovered and was left with mild to moderate tinnitus, which I got used to until last week.

While I was on holiday in a very windy location, my tinnitus spiked. It has now been one week with reactive, loud tinnitus and some hyperacusis. I am devastated that my brain has returned to that very dark place after four years. I have no idea why this happened or whether it is going to settle.

I am not sleeping and I have no energy to fight again. Has this happened to any of you, and have you recovered or gotten used to it again? I need some hope. 🙏
