Every night as I lie in bed I have to calm myself about the shrill noise going on. Sometimes during the day too. It’s still at the point where life goes on mostly unaffected, but after 8 years I’ve started to forget what silence sounded like, a cure would be very fucking welcomed.
For as long as I can remember, the sound of silence has been a whine
Saaaame. I think it’s because I got a lot of ear infections as a toddler. I have never known true silence. It gets depressing to think about so I do my best to avoid. Plus my mind is super good at tuning it out by this point.
Amen. I learned way too late the importance of ear protection as concerts.
I don’t have tinnitus, but I have fibromyalgia. Over the years I’ve also started to forget what not having pain feels like. At this point, all I live for is the hopes of remembering what it was like before. Right now, I’m just appreciative being able to have moments of silence to myself. Hang in there friend, we both have a long road ahead of us.
Ahh I’ve read about that, it sounds awful. I hope technology can help science fix us both!
Same. I think that hearing nothing, real silence, would be so jarring to me, it would borderline drive me insane.
Same. I can’t wear IEMs for too long because the noise just gets louder till about 45 minutes when I have to take them off. Open-back headphones are likely the only thing I can wear comfortably going forward
A white noise machine could help at bedtime.
We got one and it is beautiful 😍
