Thank you for this. I’m a musician too and developed tinnitus in 2014 when I was 20, went mad with it, then got earplugs and white noise generators to help me habituate. Four months later I’d habituated completely. I kept gigging with my earplugs, and even on quiet nights my tinnitus didn’t bother me. Currently, I’m going through a rough patch, my first in six years really. It hasn’t gotten worse, I’ve just become fixated on it and sleeping has been difficult, but I know it’ll get better. It’s just a phase, it hasn’t ruined my life so far, and it won’t. I can keep it under control and prevent it worsening. Thanks for sharing your story!
Try to remember it will get better with time . Sounds like you already know this 👍 if you are interested I have a new RUclips channel dedicated just to tinnitus. Called Help My Tinnitus. 👍
@@jackrubinacci_official hi mate if it gets better over time then what about speeding the process up and trying tinnitus desensitisation therapy wirh a programmed device so over time your tinnitus symptoms will be more less aware of it a 6 months to treatment to put the tinnitus willl fade background so you be less noticeable with your symptoms treatment like this have been known to be affective at the tinnitus clinic in uk

With one in five U.S. teens currently experiencing permanent hearing loss from noise by the age of 19, it's critical that we get the word out about tinnitus and other types of preventable hearing damage. Thank you for your efforts to reach out and help others learn the importance of protecting their hearing.
The second Pfizer jab gave me temporary tinnitus in left ear. I was terrified. Can’t hear it now thanks god. But people need to protect ears they were not made to be exposed to loud sounds or any kind of trauma.
I am also a musician, and I started to experience tenatis a while back. I looked for help; I started to wear earplugs; I had my ears tested; and I took longer breaks. All of these things hep, but my teñiría did not go away completely until I took a break for good. I am talking about to months at least. Now I take it seriously in every situation. I do t live off music. This is why I was able to take a good break. Anyway, if you can’t take a long break, listen to brown noise, and wear earplugs every time you are expose to loud noises.
I have -10, -12 and -15 moulded earplugs + one in my car. and another thing to say is, every few years you need to re-do the moulds as the material deteriorates so they have a limited shelf life - but it's THE best thing you can do for your ears
My tinnitus started around 2014. The worst thing about it is that it made me very irritable, out of focus and sensitive to disruptive sounds (chairs dragging, doors slamming, dish washing, loud talking) to the point of being obsessed with wanting silence and progressively distancing myself from people. But as i get into quieter environments, the more present tinnitus becomes because there's no ambient sounds/noises to distract me. Things that help me: using headphones without music or very low volume music. Reducing stimulants like coffee. Reducing sugar. Using earplugs when i go to sleep. Taking melatonin pills once in a while to help sleeping deeply without interruptions. Exercise! I do running and it helps with stress, getting in shape and getting tired which makes me fall asleep much faster.
Hello. yes I understand every thing you have said here. It’s a challenge but exercise and keeping a strong frame of mind like you are is absolutely the best thing to do . 👍
Mine started in 2012 and I can totally relate to what you are describing. However, when I was diagnosed with tinnitus I wore ear plugs a lot to block out the hyperacusis. My audiologist told me not to do that because my ears would get too used to the quiet which actually makes the tinnitus and hyperacusis worse! I took her advice and it really helped my brain adjust to louder noises, although I still wear ear plugs in truly loud environments like crowds and concerts, etc.
Wastelander…ear plugs when you go to sleep? How does that work? I need outside noise to take my tinnitus less noticeable so I can sleep soundly. Ear plugs make it so much louder. Very curious
@@Andrew-pp2ql well, in my case if i hear too much noise at night i just can't sleep due to ear irritation. I use earplugs to block the excessive noise and promote a quiet environment calming the ear overstimulation, making the tinnitus sort of "go away". But during the day i also need ambient noise to mask tinnitus.
Thanks dude, really needed this today while currently going through an episode of tinnitus getting worse. 31 and had it since I was 25. Being a music producer I can't explain how much it helps to see other musicians in the same boat having overcome the challenges and anxiety it brings on. Thanks for the tips, particular with recording. Big love ❤️
Hello 👋 really glad the video was of use, yes I know what mean about seeing other musicians with t. It’s helped me too. I’ve been doing a lot of interviews lately that you might find of use. Check out Ben Thompson interview I did. Also a music podcast called WCA. Another good interview I did. Best of luck 🤞
@@jackrubinacci_official Heyy I have seen so many videos who are suffering from this problem. You are the first one who I felt gave the best advice. Your words are encouraging. I wish you best luck :) N thank you :)
I'm a musician and I just acquired tinnitus. It wasnt from loud noise with shows but IDK where it came from. But, Its minor and comes and goes but I dont want it to get worse. It seems to bother me most when I sleep. So, when it first started I was drinking crazy amounts of booze to relax and to just get on. But, I like to see people out there that give supportive messages. This helped a lot.
Hello David . Glad the video helped a little. As a musician you’d do well to make sure to have at least one set of good ear plugs and another one as a back up . That will reduce your chances of making the T worse on stage . T always gets better with time so stay strong.
Have you heard of Dr Itua who cures tinnitus permanently? He cured my tinnitus effectively with his supplements thanks so much Doc Youtu.be/ibEgU-dFpDE
Thank you for this video! I am a singer from Romania with Tinitus and cookie bite hearing loss (the middle range is very damaged) and I have been living with this for 4 years now. I use earplugs and in-ear monitoring during events, trying to protect my hearing as much as I can in order to not damage even more, but daaaamnnn, sometimes is so hard and stressful. A positive mindset will definitely help us. I have a routine in the evening, I read a lot and play instrumental music in the background plus melatonine to help me prepare for a good night sleep. And yes, you are right, as long as we shift the attention from T, we can go on living a decent life. Thank u again for filming this. Hugs from Bucharest, Romania, Europe.
I agree in principle about your brain filtering it out to some extent. That said, it never really goes away, especially when I am in a quiet/peaceful environment. Then it is like a massive amount of cicadas are buzzing. The same is true when I go to sleep many nights, as it is difficult to ignore. I suspect that is part of the reason I cannot get a restful sleep most nights.
omg same i have tinnitus and im 16 and i really want to pursue a career in music, I am getting checked by a doctor soon. I am very scared tho, should i follow my this career path or choose a different one?i dont know what to do
People close to me know this is something I've dealt with in my life, and most people it seems have had a brush with something resembling tinnitus, but recently I had a friend come to me for some advice and I could tell right away that he was really in the thick of it. The absolutely very first thing that I thought of was to send him here! Heh, I know it's maybe a little niche but this is one of the best vids on the internet. Thanks Jack you helped get me out of a tough spot once and so I'm glad to pass it along! And to whoever needs to hear it: You're going to get on with your life... while the tinnitus will last its ability to get a hold of your attention definitely will not and it's going to be you one day giving out the advice on how to deal with it! I promise!
Hi. Thanks so much for the kind message and I really hope your friend gets back to a better place with their T. If this video helped you im really so glad . Means a lot to me to hear that . I have a new channel dedicated to tinnitus now. I’m making a lot of new content for it . Link in the description box of this video. Thank you again . Jack
Jack: Your honest, calm, and encouraging advice is awesome. There's a lot of technical tinnitus info online and it's helpful, but your approach is so natural and easy to absorb. Especially as it applies to musicians. Thanks! 🎷🎶👍
Thank you for you words of support. I'm 26 just getting serious with music as my path in life and have had tinnitus since last year. I feel hopeless at times but your story and tips gives me hope to continue with music.
Hello Thaddeus. Its important to remember that T goes up and then goes down again. So stay strong and don't give up your passion. Just try to be really proactive about protecting your ears. I did an interview on a very cool podcast this week that talks about this subject. You might benefit from listening to it. Its free to listen. Here is the link. www.workingclassaudio.com/wca-334-with-jack-rubinacci/
Jack, thank you so much for this. I’m also a musician, 6 months into severe tinnitus and it’s getting me down. Thanks to videos like this I get great comfort, and sleep better knowing that someday I’ll accept it. I can’t wait to do my own tinnitus success story video but I’m a long way off at the moment. I’m hoping it’s pandemic related and getting back to normal will relieve some stress and help with the tinnitus. Thanks again
Thank you so much for the work that you are doing to help myself and others with tinnitus. You are a great and informative speaker and very importantly you have a calm and soft voice!
Great video. Fellow musician here. I’ve had tinnitus for almost 20 years and it can be a very wild ride. Great advice here. I cannot stress enough, get those earplugs out at gigs folks.
Have you heard of Dr Itua who cures tinnitus permanently? He cured my tinnitus effectively with his supplements thanks so much Doc Youtu.be/ibEgU-dFpDE
Thanks Jack.. I’m going through a pretty bad bout currently. And I play music for a living. I thought of hanging it up and moving on to a different profession but I’m not going to let it beat me. I just currently purchased high end in ear monitors and will be playing my gigs at a much lower volume than before. I must tell you, for a bit I really thought I was going nuts and didn’t think I could go on. Watching your video and seeing all of the comments from others suffering brought me great comfort. Be well my friend. And again. Thanks you! Hopefully the day will come where there is a cure. 🙏🙏 Ed
Thanks for this :) i am pretty young and have developed tinnitus but i rlly want to persue music as a career and have been quite worried abt it so this was rlly encouraging!
Jack, Thank You So Much ! I've Had Tinnitus left Ear Since Early December 2021 .85% Hearing loss , High Pitch Jet Engine loud Noise. First 3 Weeks Non Stop Agony ! Then On And Off Different Days Of Spikes levels . Been To Primary Dr , ENT ,Audiologist ,Next MRI Normal .Trying to get our brain to habituate is a tough time, but we will win ! Best Regards, Pete.
Thanks so much for this man, this video has helped me so much. I'm 21 and my tinnitus is already unbearably loud and I'm wanting to pursue a career in music. I'm having a real serious existential crisis at the moment but your video is giving me strength and inspiration.
Thank you. This was very informative, but even more than that, it was quite comforting. Ive been playing drums and percussion for 40 years now, and had ringing for far too long. The Low "hums" have been become louder and more frequent the last few years, making it difficult to sleep sometimes. You've inspired me to look into getting some help.
thanks for sharing this video, ..I got it a month ago, and it really got me down. I stopped what I love the most, its Djing.. Hope I will be strong enough to cope with it
I just started Is developing mild tinnitus After a chronic ear infection, I am a musician, organ/keys I play organ for a church, have a studio full equipment including a hammond organ w/ a Lezlie so you can imagine how loud that gets, musician to musician thank you for this great advice! My tinnitus comes and gos, does not bother me enough to cause sleep issues so far thank God! but after hearing your strong words of advice I'm definitely going to invest in ear plugs!!! So hopefully to keep my tinnitus under control!! Thanks again!!!
Thank you so much ..I’ve been experiencing mild tinnitus too playing harmonica and I swear I’m not even gonna play until I get those freaking earplugs I’m not gonna keep playing through it !!!! Thank you for the advice when you said don’t obsess it juts made me fell better (:
Okay I’ll check It out ! Do you Hve any suggestions on which earplugs to buy ? I want to still hear the music well …. There’s so much information on which ones to get and which not to get ?! I was looking at the eargasm or earos but people are claiming they work or don’t work ?! I’m confused would love your that on that ?
Great words of encouragement. Thank you. I got hearing aids for my tinnitus about a month ago. Slight improvement so far but the audioligist says give then at least a year. I got ear plugs ( custom made ) because it makes sense. Get them in a weeks before the Ed Sheeran concert.
Thank you Jack! As a musician, I can relate to everything that you said and I found your advice both helpful and inspirational. You probably address this in your other videos, but the only thing I might add is that learning more about one’s health and diet is very helpful - at least for me it is. Cutting back on caffeine, sugar and alcohol is, I think, essential - if it’s good for the body, it’s good for dealing with a spike. Lower the stress and don’t obsess is my mantra. So please do continue to make these wonderful videos and again, thank you!
Hello Ian. Thank you for the kind comment. Yes I do address some of the things you mention in a video called 6 daily rituals. I also talk about it in my T books mentioning that feeling good in the body makes me feel stronger to deal with T. Thanks again and happy new year
Hey Jack...playing my first gig in two years in February and honestly pretty worried, I've had ear plugs (NHS) made, they are custom made for me but I'm still nervous. Your video was very encouraging and I'll take on board all of your valuable advice. I haven't taken my guitar out of its case since May. No good at all. Anyway.. stay safe brother 🎸
Hey man. Glad the videos are of use. And best of luck with your gigs. I’ve got a website called helpmytinnitus.com with some free stuff on if you interested. Best Jack
Trust Jack - you will be able to ignor it - hang in there - i didn't think so, but after a while of using some masking - liek fans and stuff - i've gradually stopped thinking about it. may God heal you. m
my tinnitus started in dec and my anxiety went through the roof. my family made it seem like i was overdoing it. i went to my dr and he sent me to an ent which said its not due to losing hearing so there is nothing for him to do. at that point i felt helpless. i wonder how i can live wt it. i went back to my dr and he was no help. then i we to an old family dr and he prescribed drugs which i didnt take. i started to use youtube masking sounds which gave me peace. after 1-2 months my tinnitus went down to 10% of what it was. my brain was starting to reduce the sound. remember tinnitus is yr brain telling u abt a new noise after a while it started to die down. yr body makes many many noises but yr brain know to mute it since it knows what it is. tinnitus is yr brain temporarily tell u abt a new noise then it dies it down. im around 5% tinnitus now and i dont notice it or hear it until i go to bed. and only if i press my ear to the pillow. before sleeping was difficult. the masking videos saved me. reduced my anxiety. suicidal thoughts which i had never had. the despair went away. my life is back to normal
exactly 3 weeks ago, when u were writing this comment, I woke up in morning and noticed disturbing ringing sound in both ears... was completely aghast, when I went to doc and realised tht dont have a solution... living with this non stop noise for 24×7 was traumatizing... every emotion or thought which I believed I can never hve came to my mind in these three weeks... still trying to figure out a solution.... its videos like these n comment like urs, made me realise I m not alone and ppl sailed their way through... it gives me hope and confidence... hope medical and science finds a solution soon..
@@Andrew-pp2ql It will with time so don’t despair. once its down to 10% or lower then it just becomes unnoticeable most if the day or days. u will be fine. just stay positive and use the masking videos in youtube to gt a good night sleep. also a fan helps alot.
@@alliberges thanks for the reply….appreciated. During daytime it’s tolerable…at night it sucks. However, using a fan and some masking noises does allow me to sleep fine. Overall, my life quality has not taken too much of a hit so very fortunate…but it still is annoying. Hoping as you said it fades with time. Take care
Bro also same thing i had tinnitus really low i was stressing about that about 2 months i went to another country… and whole thing started my anxiety i am depressed from injury and after a session of gym i came home an man i was like i hear my T in my right ear i started to stressin about that my sleep is so f-ucked up and i thing every time i focus on it its getting worse… for two years lifting weights heavy weights also loud music but only bow when am anxious and stressed out i came more harsh on me…
Thanks Jack. It's good to share about this very distressing condition. Ive had tinnitus in my left ear since I was 12 brought on either by a course of steroids or a blow to the forehead. I have always avoided loud music. I took early retirement 7 years ago to pursue music - I sing and play guitar in a semi-acoustic band and I record and write my own songs. About 4 weeks ago I developed muffled hearing and the arrival of second tinnitus sound in my right ear. Alongside that, a lot of music sounds discordant and I am struggling to sing in tune. It could mean the end of my musical career. I have been prescribed a steroid nasal spray and I am having acupuncture as well. I also have an appointment with an audiologist. I'm waiting to see if this will get better or I am stuck with it for the rest of my life. My doctor thinks that this latest episode is due to fluid in the inner ear due to hay fever allergic reaction. Oddly enough, the hearing in my left ear has come back after being reduce and haphazard since my 20s. I'm now 67. I suspect I suffer from Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. If I can't get my musical appreciation back I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

Thanks to videos like this I get great comfort, and sleep better knowing that someday I’ll accept it. I can’t wait to do my own tinnitus success story video but I’m a long way off at the moment. I’m hoping it’s pandemic related and getting back to normal will relieve some stress and help with the tinnitus. Thanks again

Thank you so much for this.
Thanks Jack, wish I could give you a hug brother 👍
Thanks man . 🙏👍
Thanks man, I have severe tinnitus and a muscian too. I feel your words.
Thank you 🙏. Stay strong
Thanks Jack.. I’m going through a pretty bad bout currently. And I play music for a living. I thought of hanging it up and moving on to a different profession but I’m not going to let it beat me. I just currently purchased high end in ear monitors and will be playing my gigs at a much lower volume than before. I must tell you, for a bit I really thought I was going nuts and didn’t think I could go on. Watching your video and seeing all of the comments from others suffering brought me great comfort. Be well my friend. And again. Thanks you! Hopefully the day will come where there is a cure. 🙏🙏

That’s great 👍
As well as Meds for Anxiety which do Work!☆☆♡♡♡
Thanks so much for this man, this video has helped me so much. I'm 21 and my tinnitus is already unbearably loud and I'm wanting to pursue a career in music. I'm having a real serious existential crisis at the moment but your video is giving me strength and inspiration.
Hello Samuel. Glad the video was of use. I wish you the very best of luck with your music career and stay strong 👍
The most honest video ever on tinnitus. I have tinnitus the last 25 years from drumming. Everything you said is me. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. Glad the video was of use.
Jack thank you - amazing story and tips for those of us who suffer from tinnitus thx for sharing
Thank you 🙏
Thank you. This was very informative, but even more than that, it was quite comforting. Ive been playing drums and percussion for 40 years now, and had ringing for far too long. The Low "hums" have been become louder and more frequent the last few years, making it difficult to sleep sometimes. You've inspired me to look into getting some help.
Hello Kraig. Glad the video was of use . Happy Easter ☀️
thanks for sharing this video, ..I got it a month ago, and it really got me down. I stopped what I love the most, its Djing.. Hope I will be strong enough to cope with it
Start strong . It gets easier over time.
Hello I am a Community Radio announcer!☆☆♡♡♡
Thanks so much man, I'm a composer and mixing engineer and I was really really panicking.
Glad the video was of use 🙏👍
I just started Is developing mild tinnitus After a chronic ear infection, I am a musician, organ/keys I play organ for a church, have a studio full equipment including a hammond organ w/ a Lezlie so you can imagine how loud that gets, musician to musician thank you for this great advice! My tinnitus comes and gos, does not bother me enough to cause sleep issues so far thank God! but after hearing your strong words of advice I'm definitely going to invest in ear plugs!!! So hopefully to keep my tinnitus under control!! Thanks again!!!
Hello 👋 thank you. Glad the video was of use. Yes those Leslie’s can be loud so good idea to use some ear protection. Best of luck 🤞
Thanks for this. Jack. Have you even tried Bone Conduction Headphones, and if so, what's your thought on it?
Thank you so much ..I’ve been experiencing mild tinnitus too playing harmonica and I swear I’m not even gonna play until I get those freaking earplugs I’m not gonna keep playing through it !!!! Thank you for the advice when you said don’t obsess it juts made me fell better (:
Hello Andre . Glad the video was of use. Best of luck with your ear plugs . I have a video on how I use ear plugs on my channel too. 👍
Okay I’ll check It out ! Do you Hve any suggestions on which earplugs to buy ? I want to still hear the music well …. There’s so much information on which ones to get and which not to get ?! I was looking at the eargasm or earos but people are claiming they work or don’t work ?! I’m confused would love your that on that ?
Great words of encouragement. Thank you. I got hearing aids for my tinnitus about a month ago. Slight improvement so far but the audioligist says give then at least a year. I got ear plugs ( custom made ) because it makes sense. Get them in a weeks before the Ed Sheeran concert.
Excellent and best of luck
Thank you for taking the time for your heart felt support!
Thank you
Thank you Jack! As a musician, I can relate to everything that you said and I found your advice both helpful and inspirational. You probably address this in your other videos, but the only thing I might add is that learning more about one’s health and diet is very helpful - at least for me it is. Cutting back on caffeine, sugar and alcohol is, I think, essential - if it’s good for the body, it’s good for dealing with a spike. Lower the stress and don’t obsess is my mantra.
So please do continue to make these wonderful videos and again, thank you!
Hello Ian. Thank you for the kind comment. Yes I do address some of the things you mention in a video called 6 daily rituals. I also talk about it in my T books mentioning that feeling good in the body makes me feel stronger to deal with T. Thanks again and happy new year
@@jackrubinacci_official - thank you for the kind reply and please keep up the good work 👍🏻😀
For people with Tinnitus try Ginkgo Biloba extracts it helped with my tinnitus, it lowered down at the same time clams me down. It works for me
How long until you began to notice results?
Hey Jack...playing my first gig in two years in February and honestly pretty worried, I've had ear plugs (NHS) made, they are custom made for me but I'm still nervous.
Your video was very encouraging and I'll take on board all of your valuable advice.
I haven't taken my guitar out of its case since May.
No good at all.
Anyway.. stay safe brother 🎸
Hey man. Glad the videos are of use. And best of luck with your gigs. I’ve got a website called helpmytinnitus.com with some free stuff on if you interested. Best Jack
5:06 im crying.. Thank you for this reminder
Hello. Glad the video was of use. 👋
Trust Jack - you will be able to ignor it - hang in there - i didn't think so, but after a while of using some masking - liek fans and stuff - i've gradually stopped thinking about it. may God heal you. m
Hi Michael. Thank you for your comment. Glad you are able to distract your mind from T. Sending best wishes 👋
my tinnitus started in dec and my anxiety went through the roof. my family made it seem like i was overdoing it. i went to my dr and he sent me to an ent which said its not due to losing hearing so there is nothing for him to do. at that point i felt helpless. i wonder how i can live wt it. i went back to my dr and he was no help. then i we to an old family dr and he prescribed drugs which i didnt take. i started to use youtube masking sounds which gave me peace. after 1-2 months my tinnitus went down to 10% of what it was. my brain was starting to reduce the sound. remember tinnitus is yr brain telling u abt a new noise after a while it started to die down. yr body makes many many noises but yr brain know to mute it since it knows what it is. tinnitus is yr brain temporarily tell u abt a new noise then it dies it down. im around 5% tinnitus now and i dont notice it or hear it until i go to bed. and only if i press my ear to the pillow. before sleeping was difficult. the masking videos saved me. reduced my anxiety. suicidal thoughts which i had never had. the despair went away. my life is back to normal
exactly 3 weeks ago, when u were writing this comment, I woke up in morning and noticed disturbing ringing sound in both ears... was completely aghast, when I went to doc and realised tht dont have a solution... living with this non stop noise for 24×7 was traumatizing... every emotion or thought which I believed I can never hve came to my mind in these three weeks... still trying to figure out a solution.... its videos like these n comment like urs, made me realise I m not alone and ppl sailed their way through... it gives me hope and confidence... hope medical and science finds a solution soon..
Thanks for sharing…what I’m hoping for overtime it fades as it becomes so normal to hear
@@Andrew-pp2ql It will with time so don’t despair. once its down to 10% or lower then it just becomes unnoticeable most if the day or days. u will be fine. just stay positive and use the masking videos in youtube to gt a good night sleep. also a fan helps alot.
@@alliberges thanks for the reply….appreciated. During daytime it’s tolerable…at night it sucks. However, using a fan and some masking noises does allow me to sleep fine. Overall, my life quality has not taken too much of a hit so very fortunate…but it still is annoying. Hoping as you said it fades with time. Take care
Bro also same thing i had tinnitus really low i was stressing about that about 2 months i went to another country… and whole thing started my anxiety i am depressed from injury and after a session of gym i came home an man i was like i hear my T in my right ear i started to stressin about that my sleep is so f-ucked up and i thing every time i focus on it its getting worse… for two years lifting weights heavy weights also loud music but only bow when am anxious and stressed out i came more harsh on me…
Thanks Jack. It's good to share about this very distressing condition. Ive had tinnitus in my left ear since I was 12 brought on either by a course of steroids or a blow to the forehead. I have always avoided loud music. I took early retirement 7 years ago to pursue music - I sing and play guitar in a semi-acoustic band and I record and write my own songs. About 4 weeks ago I developed muffled hearing and the arrival of second tinnitus sound in my right ear. Alongside that, a lot of music sounds discordant and I am struggling to sing in tune. It could mean the end of my musical career. I have been prescribed a steroid nasal spray and I am having acupuncture as well. I also have an appointment with an audiologist. I'm waiting to see if this will get better or I am stuck with it for the rest of my life. My doctor thinks that this latest episode is due to fluid in the inner ear due to hay fever allergic reaction. Oddly enough, the hearing in my left ear has come back after being reduce and haphazard since my 20s. I'm now 67. I suspect I suffer from Eustachian Tube Dysfunction.
If I can't get my musical appreciation back I'm not sure what I'm going to do.
Hi Steve. Sorry about your recent change in hearing . I hope things return to normal soon for you . Best wishes.
