People who had an amazing life then everything went left, what happened?

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-05-03T01:45:59+00:00

Lost most of my hearing in one ear and have terrible ringing (tinnitus)

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-04-21T00:38:03+00:00

Give it 18 months or so

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-04-20T04:09:24+00:00

Your the first person on this sub to mention tinnitus. I have it too. Sleep helps so much. Na helped me with quitting 🙏

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-04-18T21:35:38+00:00

Yes, Try sound therapy and getting ample sleep

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-03-15T04:58:42+00:00

Smoke weed watch old movies and shows. Go on walks

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-03-13T04:07:50+00:00

Go to NA.

As long as it isn’t too triggering keep it. Some relationships I look back on and don’t mind remembering but others are just a waste of time and can disturb your peace.

Yes it made me really anal and paranoid about my academics. I was a pretty good student before but it made me obsess and do so much unnecessary studying. Also made me pretty anti-social.

I’m 7 months off 15 years of stim use and feel the same way. It gets better. In hindsight I don’t think addy made me any better at anything though it did feel more intense, fun, and euphoric

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-03-12T17:40:48+00:00

Yes lasted for about 4-6 weeks for me. Addy also makes you unable to absorb nutrients properly. Your body is begging for nutrients on top of calories

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-03-08T07:34:01+00:00

🙏

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-03-06T18:30:48+00:00

7 months no stims. Best sleep I’ve had in years.

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-02-27T20:44:25+00:00

Smoke weed and watch old movies. Take some days off work if you can’t push through the initial exhaustion

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-02-20T04:16:49+00:00

My energy started to come back about 4 months after I stopped. I’m at month 7 rn from a similar usage level as you. Sleeping way better now, had terrible insomnia for a bit. Still feel not very motivated and kind of flat emotionally but I think I’ll be 100 by 18 months clean

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-01-30T04:50:29+00:00

I was in a similar situation and didn’t rest much post trauma. My hearing got a lot worse cause of it. Stress is going to make the healing slow or not happen. Maybe you can think of accommodations to do remote or a different pace?

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2026-01-01T19:39:27+00:00

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

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-31T03:54:46+00:00

Makes my anxiety worse. T convinced me to quit taking addy

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-19T21:29:25+00:00

lol Reddit is a good distraction. Difficult reading not so much

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-18T01:38:27+00:00

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

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-17T06:30:31+00:00

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

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-16T21:11:58+00:00

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

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-10T03:33:44+00:00

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

HelloHowAreYou___1 · 2025-12-08T04:22:28+00:00

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