Tinnitus is like an ear worm, but instead of a worm, it's a Millipede, and it is wearing tap shoes and dancing on my auditory cortex.

Of course, why didn't the doctor know this?

Tinnitus is the sensation of hearing a persistent noise like ringing, buzzing, or roaring that doesn't have an external source.

If you're the one in every ten adults who experiences incessant ringing in your ears, you already know how disruptive tinnitus can be. A new study led by researchers from Massachusetts Eye and Ear has uncovered evidence of this phantom noise being generated by hyperactive nerves the nervous system can no longer tune out. As widespread as it is, tinnitus has long remained a medical mystery, but now researchers have tracked down evidence that supports a leading theory of the origins of that pesky buzz. A quick explainer for those who haven't experienced it – around 10 to 15 percent of adults worldwide hear a ringing, roaring, or buzzing sound from within their ears known as tinnitus. For some, it comes and goes. For others, it is persistent, being considered chronic if it lasts for more than three months. Tinnitus is usually associated with some kind of ear disturbance, such as noise exposure, hearing loss, injury, blockage, or infection. It can also affect people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or hearing impaired. "Beyond the nuisance of having persistent ringing or other sounds in the ears, tinnitus symptoms are debilitating in many patients, causing sleep deprivation, social isolation, anxiety, and depression, adversely affecting work performance, and reducing significantly their quality of life," says auditory physiologist Stéphane Maison from Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, who was part of the research team.

I'm thinking a retired!Dream who, in the wake of losing the collective unconscious, suffers from chronic and occasionally debilitating tinnitus

Dream who can't sit in a silent room without his ears ringing so badly he runs the risk of throwing up or passing out. Who has to keep fans on at night or a noise machine. Who needs subtitles for tv and has wavering audio processing bc of the static in his head. Who needs certain amounts of ambient noise to be able to focus at all. Who keeps a pair of earbuds in his bag in case he needs to play music without disturbing others.

I just think it would be fasincting for that void to be loud

#I'm not projecting! (she is)#dream of the endless #tinnitus #i havent seen anyone use it as an obstacle for retired!dream yet and i think it could be a good one #this just in my tinnitus has been extra horrific this week since i had to spend some time in the most silent house in the world apparently

I need to meet more people with vestibular disorders!! I feel like nobody gets what I'm talking about when I vent lol like I sound ridiculous.

"Someone said something but I couldn't hear because of the Screeching™"

"I bent over and immediately threw up, yeah my ear decided I was actually upside down lol"

"Flashing lights make my ears hurt."

Where are my people?!
