Super Loud Tinnitus

Maybe you have figured out a objective way to listen to, experience, measure and compare others tinnitus to your own? I would highly doubt it, and if not, your statement about "super loud tinnitus" or scale 10-11 means absolutely nothing to anyone in the real world, it only means something to you.

Most thing are subjective aren't they. Doctors frequently will use 1 to 10 scales for patients to fill out. And some tend to downplay and some exaggerate based evyen on mood,personality or any number of reasons. My ocd issues generally caused me to be conservative with those numbers just because it seems to me like complaining. One of the forms for balance therapy asked for percentages about level of confidence. There was nothing scientific about that (lol).

Yeah I'm sure that you are a hero and all that jazz, but you can't say that you have " super loud tinnitus". How could you possibly know this? And you have a level 10-11 level compared to what? Where do you get these numbers? They are obviously made up in your own mind. These are your own figures based on what your own tinnitus does, nothing more.

Not sure if it's possible for you, but try and cut the BS man, in the end people will respect you more for that. Take care

You are ignorant and have no clue who i am and what i deal with..i suggest you shut that pie hole :)
 
Tellis, i am sorry that i don't complain like you do bro. I really am, but if i complained like you and had your weak mindset, i would never make it. I have read your posts and you sound defeated bro, that's on you..NOT ME!

You are a negative person, with anger....

Keep your posts coming man and i'll fire back :)

But just because its subjective doesn't make it less real to the person. My husband had really bad shoulder pain. He was a big guy and worked a physical job so not unusual. Reg doc ordered mri and gave him some pills. However he complained the pills weren't working and couldn't see his regular doc but another one at their after hours clinic. Well my husband was also kind of a biker looking guy with tattoos. That doctor thought he was drug seeking. I wasn't at the appt or I would have pitched a fit. Instead my husband was going to wait till Monday to see his regular doc. Monday never came. He died of a massive heart attack at home on Sunday . The other Dr obviously must have thought my husband was exaggerating when the pain was probably from a clot in the shoulders.


So subjective by its very nature is not something you can easily judge another person by.

Don't try to justify to the ignorant people... It's ok and god bless you for being strong :)

Wow, Intelligent response, absolutely nothing to do with what I said at all. But if labeling and calling me weak makes you feel better about yourself, or stronger, go for it. If this is what makes you (in your mind) a positive strong guy, then sure, you're the man! Keep it up!

Its not in my mind. I live it, walk it , talk it .....Yes, I am very positive and that's why i have made it this far in life after the horrors i have faced and still face.... I feel great about myself. Like i said, you have no clue where I been and what i have faced in this life....so Keep it coming :)

You walk and talk it as well? You've been successful in life like this? Hahaha well whatever works for you man. Calling people names and acting all high and mighty has probably put you in those horror positions, I'm sure you brought it all on yourself and you deserved whatever came your way :) Try living with empathy instead, it will probably serve you better than puffing out your chest and trying to bully your way through life.
 
Anyway, I'm out of here, don't take things so personally. All I was saying was that you don't know if your T is loud because you can't measure it objectively. You don't have to spaz out, get all negative and start throwing names a me, time to relax man. Breath and relax. See ya :)

Grabbed some pretty cool albums from the 80s and early 90s :)
