@ZenithTheReborn@tech.lgbt Yeah definitely, hyperacusis is pretty rare and it is hard for others to understand it. But the lowered pain threshold is horrible. My hearing is just a giant mess with distortion and otherwise, my ear drums throbbing too, and recruitment in one of my ears.

Hearing aids are so expensive though and you have to find a empathetic audiologist for it.
