Things to know you’re 30 “I wish the odd elite one just went with the grain”
“Ah, that’s gonna be my bad knee”
“I don’t know why I have a sore spot there it just comes and goes”
“Dental repairs cost how much?” and suddenly brushing and flossing will be a second hobby
Tinnitus, but not like severe. Just once in awhile and often enough to keep you guessing like once a month or so.
“There was a pop but I don’t know where.”
virkuThat sudden silence followed by a minutes tinnitus every couple of months is the weirdest thing.
I had sudden tinnitus start in my left ear pulsing a high pitch with my heartbeat. Then slowly a crackling started in my right with its volume based on what I'm hearing. Now Im bombarded with noise every moment of every day. Docs have basically said "welp this is your life now". The Antidepressants arent cheap either!
That sounds horrible!
Have you found anything that helps yet? Brown noise? This is also supposed to help:

I’ve had tinnitus since I was born, that trick does help, but only for a couple minutes. I just live with at this point, I’ve never had true silence so idk what I’m even missing
SmokeyDopeBig Pharma antidepressants ain’t cheap, grow a little 🍄 yourself
Two things helped me: learning not to listen to the “noise” (it’s not truly noise, it’s a kind of nerve damage), and hearing aids. When I first put the aids in the tinnitus vanished. The downside is that all the work I’d put in to not listening was overturned, because I “heard” the sounds again when I took the aids out. Still nice to have that respite though.
Training yourself to not listen to the racket isn’t easy, but it is so worthwhile. Turn your attention away to something else - a smell, a photograph, your pet, anything. Focus away. Just thinking about tinnitus is making it “audible” to me, lol! It’s not real sounds, it’s your poor abused nerve endings firing off random signals. White noise works for a lot of people, but it never has for me.
Visit tinnitus.org for more info. There’s a download section where you can get a pdf of a scientific paper describing the method.
Wtf, I thought that was just me. Although it happens less ever since I lost some weight, so my guess is it’s BP related.
