MemberLiving with Tinnitus can be hell.
We have to work so hard to lessen its impact.
Living with a Tinnitus sufferer can also be truly difficult and depressing.
Watching loved ones in despair is so sad.
We should never ever minimise that.
Perhaps the best thing is to give and receive loving support to each other.
I know that to be the right way.
But we all know some friends/relatives that I term NTSs (non tinnitus sufferers), who give so much advice.
They are full of advice (usually well meaning) but they are totally devoid of experience.
They don't have "T," but seem to know:
exactly what we should do about it,
how we should treat it,
and the very best way to cope.
I've designated a special award for them.
It's the FFFA award.
Once in receipt of such, the recipient is entitled to put these letters after their name, on all correspondence.
It means that, with regard to "T," they know precisely:
'Four Fifths of F**K All.'
