This is the best description I’ve heard for this method, I always thought it was bullshit because I never heard a description that actually explained how to do this other than “tap your head 20 times”.

I have anxiety-induced hissing, which sounds/feels different from sound-induced tinnitus (which I have also experience). Sound-based tinnitus actually sounds like you’re “hearing” something in your ears, whilst the hissing I have feels like it’s “inside my head”, if that makes sense. But this technique still helps!!

My ringing just went away for the first time in years. What is this blissful quiet.

… OK, this actually worked. I’m hearing nothing for the first time in 25 years. I think I’ll go cry now.

When you read something so perfect in AO3 and you have to give kudos and you know you can only give once but you keep smashing the button.

I feel the doorhandle digging deeper into my lower back with each thrust. Our breaths are out of sync and come out in shallow pants rather than inhales and exhales. Stars are exploding behind my eyelids but I force myself to hold on to your gaze. Something passes between us then, a plea, a wordless prayer, and the floor opens up to an endless abyss of pleasure.
