[Joe Swanson]

I thought I did, but it turns out I can just hear electricity in the walls

 

[Soup Sammiches]

NO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS AND WHY ARE WE YELLING?

 

[Migraine Box]

I have autisticly sensitive hearing that turns into unbearable tinnitus when there's no noise.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

A pretty bad case, actually.

 

[Not Really Here]

Only for the last 34 years.

 

[analrapist]

I guess I'm a blessed weirdo. If I'm straining to hear, pushing the limits of my hearing, I can perceive symptoms of tinnitus. I can kind of "turn it off" and make myself not notice. It's like the "you are now breathing manually" prompts. I can read it, laugh, and send it to the shadow realm in my mind, and I'm back to breathing automatically without further effort.

 

[albumen]

Only if it's total silence.

 

[Richard Harrow]

Yes. Being EOD for 10 years, it was inevitable.

 

[Lake]

Sorry, could you say that again?

Huh?

8 years of almost daily gym has unironically done nore damage to my ears than my body

Spoiler

yes

 

[Asian tech support]

No. @Tinnitus is still free for the time being. Soon, though.

 

[Cat tit bingo]

Recently I had an ear infection and my ear was swollen shut for weeks and I could hear nothing but my tinnitus amplified and echoed, it was genuinely torture

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

Had it since kindergarten. Having hyper(realistic) sensitive hearing is both a blessing and a curse. Did you know people with this type of hearing are at a higher risk of going deaf? You could just wake up one day deaf.

I have white noise on at all times for sanity reasons.

What happened? Did you go to the gym with headphones at full volume?

 

[Mister Baranavichy]

What happened? Did you go to the gym with headphones at full volume?

It's a stupid habbit I have when I'm either at my last set of an important exercice or trying for new weight, I'll raise it slightly over the max healthy volume, and because all the blood leaves the brain I then forget for like 10 minutes to lower it back.

Repeat for all these years and it'll do some damage.

 

[dick brain]

Yeah but it's mild enough that I don't notice until I think about it, like breathing or blinking.

Years of diligent earpro as a gigging musician undone by one bad day at the range.
