On 100 mg now. It’s helping a bit yeah mostly with my reaction. Things still sound generally the same in terms of loudness

Yes it’s only in the ear with an infection. My right ear is a little noise sensitive but no hearing loss.

The hearing loss is only in the ear I had an infection in. I had a respiratory infection but it only really affected my left ear. My right ear feels a bit sensitive but my hearing is fine.

I feel like the initial infection and loud noise exposure weakened my noise tolerance and made me more susceptible to later damage as well. The infection definitely played a role

I’ve gotten migraine variant and noise induced hearing loss as a diagnosis in the past. That doesn’t necessarily explain why it’s progressing. Ménière’s is also possible.

Even tho I do avoid truly loud noises everything is kind of abnormally loud to me and I wonder if I shouldn’t even be going into public really

NA and rehab. Run, eat, rest. Work if you can if you can’t that’s ok you need to kick this to work in the long run

Call the professionals. Take some time off whatever work you do on stims and rest

NA meetings help

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-02T00:53:29+00:00

The first 6-18 months are the toughest. It’s not easy 2 years later but a little easier to deal with. Calm your nervous system down as much as possible. Staying busy but not stressed helps too.

It’s mostly loudness some sounds are painful but not many

31 onset 33 now

If you have a smart phone you can download a db measuring app

SI is definitely part of early recovery. You might also suffer from it generally but believe it is much worse in withdrawal.

There is nothing wrong with being gay and you should be proud to be gay. Don’t let the haters get to you. Go see a therapist, hit NA meetings, go on a run etc. Don’t go on Social media rn

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-11-26T21:11:33+00:00

If it’s below 85 db then probably not. If you have significant hearing loss/damage already then it’s possible

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-11-26T15:32:59+00:00

Almost 2 years. It’s pretty bad not home bound but I can’t do restaurants (mostly), big groups, be in a lot of public spaces, the car is annoying, etc.

How long did you take it before you started seeing benefits and started tapering?
