but why would you turn the game off
Because it's Ganker(nel) posting time!
reminder that it's incurable and only becomes worse
Okay, so it's not just me. How long ago did it start for you?
Nah. My mom had the same thing when she was taking care of my grandparents. She's much better now.
there's nothing for you to argue about
you can't cure tinnitus with any avaliable treatment
I'm talking about the "only becomes worse" part. It fades.
no it doesn't
it changes frequencies from worse to worse
I live with a woman who had tinnitus, and I also have tinnitus. Why are you arguing?
because i know that woman
God will protect me.
i got tinnitus when i was like 10 years old and never changed its intensity, i got accustomed and kind of don't play attention to it. but there are cases and cases
I had tinittus for about a week, it went away. Didn't have my earplugs in properly at the indoor range.

How do you know if someone has tinnitus? They'll tell you.
Redpill me on tinnitus.
What is it exactly? I've heard some people say it's swelling of brain neurons. Others say it's due to loud noises. Apparently people on meds get it but I dunno if that's true.
How come people get it and how do they stop it? Is there stuff in th environment that causes it?
Anything leading to you hearing static 24/7. In my case, I forgot to wear a mask/hoodie to the store, and got vaxshed in me, causing this.
In other cases, it can be due to damaged eardrum hairs or brain abnormalities.
Only way to make it stop is by ignoring it.
>forgot to wear a mask and got vaxshed in me
this is a fascinating post, i love how i can't tell if you are genuinely insane or shitposting
It can cause tinnitus.
there is no such thing as "vaxshed"
The weird sheddings that come out of the vaxxinated.
>how do they stop it?
Had it temporarily a few times and the thing that caused it was always loud noises for long time periods, it either fades with time or it sticks around and you're fucked.
funny thing is if you thing about it after not hearing it for a while it comes back in full force.
I listened to Ganker sings Bury the Light on max volume and spent 2 days with it. Never happened before with music but somehow these fucks did it. Extremely loud noises, especially prolonged ones, will set it off.
It's damage to the Stereocilia ( little hair like fibers) inside Cochlea. Usually caused by loud sounds. Causes a ha high pitch ringing
>go part deaf in both ears at 8
>lose hearing in one ear overnight at 10
>get out of both school and covid looking forward to meeting new people at university
>mfw as soon as I leave school for my hearing instantly becomes way more unstable and tinnitus-ridden no apparent reason
>mfw it's now been two years of unsolvable, unpreventable, on-and-off hearing issues
Why do so many people on Ganker have tinnitus?
1 in 5 people have it, and most who don't won't have a reason to talk about it.
Probably from 50mm headphones blasting simulated gunfire into their ears for 12 hours a day for the last 15 years.
Shouldn’t have taken the vax
i never even listened to music cuz i don't like it
but got it cuz of chemotherapy
You can get it from fucking chemo???
yeah, chemo causes a fuckton of problems in your body that may or may not go away after a while
im lucky, tinnitus is very low on the list of permanent effects
>tinnitus is LOW on the list of permanent effects
>chemo apparently does more then just making you bald and feeling like shit while you're on it
fucking hell, now I get why people are averse to going it
yeah, some people pick death over undergoind it and i understand why
thankfully things have changed over the years and it's no longer the only treatment available, now i just take pills daily with no side effects (so far) and been cancer free for years
>been cancer free for years
Good to hear anon, hope you'll be free of that shit for many years to come
thank you
oh and forgot to mention
the baldness is temporary on chemo, it goes away fast when you stop it
>don't listen to music
>get cancer
Well you can't make that up
imagine crying about tinnitus that you can block out
I've gotten used to my tinnitus, it's white noise for me now.
open window listen to birds chirpin
I hate how we just start collecting diseases as we get older.
I'm collecting autoimmune diseases. Urticaria, sebdem, and I suspect I might have fibromyalgia. Plus I might have gotten the ALS gene from my father because he also had some of these inflammatory diseases.
Weird how technology has advanced so much in the last 20 years but still can't solve many cancers and ALS is still a mystery.
they cant outright cure things but they are no longer a death sentence like they used to be
>I might have the ALS gene
Good fucking luck anon, hopefully you avoided it
If I do get it I will demand assisted suicide because there's no way I will go through that again except in my own skin
tinnitus is not real it's purely psychosomatic
