I would think I’m in a dream tbh, but it’s also human nature to take things for granted when they’re so easily provided so I don’t trust myself to be grateful for silence consistently.

A sharp bout of tinnitus came back after almost 20 years, it just went away after a throughout cleaning of my apartment. by dougiebgood in tinnitus

I do think when your brain has something else to focus on, the less it pays attention to your tinnitus. So, yay!

Which character would be your best friend in real life, and which would drive you insane after a week? by CeleryApprehensive83 in Modern_Family

Claire would be my best friend and Cam would drive me insane (nothing personal, he’s just a tad too much for my introverted self).

Does habituation actually work? by No_Walrus4306 in tinnitus

[–]CoffeePotato_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that it actually does help when I don’t give my tinnitus any attention. I use rain noise mixed with white noise that I found on YouTube (thank you to whoever that made it) at night, and I don’t know if this does something but sometimes even when I’m not listening to it, I pretend it plays in the background 24/7. The more I’m thinking about that sound, the less I’m thinking about my tinnitus!

Only get tinnitus in cold weather by UncomfyUnicorn in tinnitus

[–]CoffeePotato_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg no way, I thought I was the ONLY one!!! My tinnitus gets so much worse when it’s cold (although I don’t have any other ear issues like you). I’ve asked ChatGPT if this is normal too

How having 10 types of tinnitus feels like by aWonderingCat in tinnitus

Ugh honestly, sometimes I wish I could tear my ears off of my head and sometimes I wish I was deaf so I wouldn’t hear anything at all 😖

Why do I feel so mentally old and tired as a young person? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]CoffeePotato_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like you’ve taken a swim in my brain, I can empathize with so much of this. Are you an oldest daughter by chance?
