Thank you for bringing more attention to hyperacusis🙏my pain hyperacusis since 2018 has stolen my life.thank you for spreading hope🙏greatly appreciated❤️
I notice it as well that people don't get it. Both in regards to tinnitus and hyperacusis. So I'm stuck with this terrible situation and when I talk about it people are sympathetic but you see they don't get it. They just move past it like you're talking about having a runny nose or something simple like that.
I feel for Trevor. Glad to see his hyperacusis has subsided. I've had tinnitus with hyperacusis for about 2 1/2 years now. I having hearing aids with tinnitus maskers. They have helped, somewhat, but I'm still having days where it really bothers me. CBT and TRT I'm sure would help. I'll be looking into that soon.
I was in this same boat then got put on mirtazipine, I'm able to sleep and I rarely notice the sound now (unless I sit down and try to hear the sound of course).
@@chrisk6488 well I've had a battery of hearing tests the last few years and they've said I've got the hearing of a 70 year old which I think plays it's part. But I believe it mainly related to stress and stressful events, at times I will get a louder noticeable flare, BUT the mirtazipine massively took the edge off of things for me. But mileage may vary for others 👍 anyone on the fence about hearing aids in re to tinnitus it definitely helps... Whilst you have them on 😂
Summary from retired, career techwriter who is a recent tinnitus sufferer (mild, ~8000 Hz constant squeal, worse in morning...) presumably from 50 years of woodworking/motorcycling/landscaping). - The patient describes mostly his hyperacusis (noise sensitivity), although Ben says tinnitus too. He cites an ear infection as "when it got really bad." - The patient attributes his near cure to both cognitive behavioral therapy and sound therapy both from Ben's practice. He said CBT was "probably the biggest thing." - The sound therapy was described as finding the right sounds (pink noise), starting at low volumes and increasing them, 15 minutes and increasing. - It took 8 months for his current level of improvement. - The patient describes now living a normal life, but was using the background sound during the interview and uses earplugs still. This "trajectory" is identical to my many-years work with repetitive strain, where "complete recovery" usually includes ongoing sensitivity to overuse, but no longer life-altering. Note that we don't know the applicability of his success to patients who DON'T "present with" noise sensitivity (meaning more mainstream tinnitus).
please please please tell me how to live with tinnitus that is so loud at nighttime that it sounds like a helicopter right beside me??? also, working out increases the loudness for me as well. do I stop working out???? PLEASE HELP ME, I am suffering. I cry everyday. I have no hope.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this-it sounds incredibly overwhelming. For loud nighttime tinnitus, sound therapy or white noise machines can help mask the sound and make it easier to fall asleep. It's not uncommon for tinnitus to increase when our blood pressure increases. It’s important to consult with an audiologist or tinnitus specialist for personalized support. If you haven’t already, consider speaking with a specialist for personalized strategies to help manage your symptoms. Schedule a complimentary telehealth consultation: treble.health/consultation
I’m so sorry you’re going through this-it can feel so sudden and unfair. Tinnitus and ear issues can sometimes be triggered by factors like stress, noise exposure, infections, or even changes in the body that aren’t immediately obvious. It’s a good idea to consult with an ENT or audiologist to explore potential causes. We'd also be happy to discuss further with you.

Is this separate from Autistic sensory sensitivity, or is this what Autistic people have when they are sensory sensitive to sound? Does that question make sense?
It's unclear whether those with Autism have hyperacusis or just overall hypersensitivity to different inputs as many times, it's not just auditory sensations that are bothersome.
I just want to know how many hours a day should we use sound therapy ?? I have tinnitus 24/7 i think at level between 8 and 10!!!! 😢😢😢 This started a month ago , HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Mine is a constant ringing, 24/7, keeps me awake all night long.

I'd be really interested in knowing the response to this question
@@李磊-q4x We'll be very interested to see!!
