What's new

hey, Joe. I am also Jo. nice to meet you. I see you are struggling very much with your tinnitus. Let me tell you, the first habituation process is the hardest. ngl. You don't know how it feels like and therefore it is an endless cascade. It took me 3 years to get better. I am a very anxious person, because of childhood trauma. It will get better with time. First 1,5 years was hell. like torture. endless days. little to no sleep. nothing i could think about other than the sounds. People like me need a lot longer to habituate. So don't give up. I never thought i would habituate, but i did. I never thought i would habituate after my worsening and the drone hum.. but i did.. We don't know what the future has in store for us.

Hi Delta. How are you feeling today? Has the Clomipramine helped at all? How well are you managing your relationships? Hope I'm not too intrusive. These are all things I think about. Well wishes.

Restless legs has decided to join in now. Took a zopiclone 2 nights ago as tinnitus was raging. It didn't help much and gave me 1 hour sleep. Last night I got 2 hours broken sleep and restless legs not helping. but tinnitus was mild during the day as long as Im not around any noise other than natural sounds. Panicking again that this is how it will be forever. Trying to remember that I've had it disappear for a few hours on two occassions last week. So if it can disappear then then perhaps it can again. I don't think pills will help as I just get too anxious about side effects.

it is so crazy to me that i habe failed out of habituation two times now.. my energy is so low.. it was such a shitty year.. also landlord wants to get rid of us. i will not find a quiet place like this again..

We are all in hell. I am in hell. And i do not feel anything anymore. I am not afraid anymore. I am just exhausted. It eats away your energy. Why does this exist...
