The Benefits of Tinnitus

[JohnnyMx]

When i got T increased, I first lost my life, my soul, my job, my wife, my health, ... then realized that i just was blaming Tinnitus for things i have already done, Tinnitus was just the final shoot. My life was a real mess before T.

But then, all changed, i started fighting back because i already have a beatiful son.

I lost tons of weight, i started to get real quality time with my son, i started to work smarter in my own business, i developed great habits, i was not a good habits person, like eating healthy food, exersice, manage my stress, and i have already returned with my wife, and gonna be father for second time.

Tinnitus, and my Hyperacusis for sure have added big problems in the past, anxiety, depressión... but i dont't think i could have done all of this changes in my life without T and H arriving to me.

T does not bother me anymore... and i'm trying to easy my physical symptoms, like H, aural fullness, pain, in order to be much more well.

Yesterday, my son and I spent the sunday watching movies, series, eating popcorns and some pizza.... by the afternoon i realized i was just feeling wonderful, just like so many years ago.

For me T was not the end, but the beggining.

I have just joined this site. I wouldn't say I have any positives from having T and most of the time I can deal with it and ignore it but sometimes like this week it is really loud and intense and very difficult staying sane and no apparent catalyst this time, usually T is more intense after a night out drinking and clubbing from the loud music and lack of sleep I guess.
My hearing hasn't been affected though and I am grateful for that. I can be watching TV on my own and when anyone enters the room they have to ask me to turn the volume up as they cannot hear the TV.
I do have a lower tolerance for man made sounds such as printers, bells, Air condition, alarms, fans etc. all drive me loopy - any man made sounds apart from music ( not including Jazz ).
