Tinnitus is my constant companion. It never leaves me. It’s always there. From the time I wake up to the time I fall asleep, it’s there. You r dog may leave you, your friends desert you, your spouse run off with someone they met on the Interwebz , but Tinnitus is faithful and true and will never leave you alone..........................
I hear ya (pun intended)!
I’ve been hearing impaired all of my life, with about 5% hearing or less in my right ear, maybe 25% in my left. Of course , I have tinnitus. When I first started “hearing” it I thought I was hearing somebody’s stuck car horn in the distance.
After awhile I realized it was me. At times it’s different, I’ve been able to make out three different sounds occurring at the same time. I’ve had high pitched musical tones, and rarely, very low pitched tones that I’ve physically felt as a vibration in my head. I do wear hearing aids and they do help mask some of it, but they are not a perfect solution.
I was born with some of this, but working in loud shops and loud music have taken their toll.
I still consider myself Blessed in a lot of other areas of my life, so I deal with it.🙂🔭
I am saving that thought. It brings peace, in a noisy sort of way.
