I’m depressed and I wanna listen to music… 🥲
Its just fearmongering right?
I don’t max the volume, just turn it high enough to hear it, if I used speakers, I’d also turn it so that my ears detect the “same volume” so I don’t get why headphones is worse? Literally the same volume.
Also privacy, I don’t want others to know what I’m listening, the fuck lol.
As someone who has had tinnitus for nearly 30 years, PLEASE take care of your ears. Headphones don’t always mean T, but if you listen loud enough, you WILL get T. Respect ear health.
Yep, me too. I had a type of headphones way back when, one they don’t build anymore because it brings the speaker membrane too close to your inner ear. That, the kind of music I liked to listen to, and many loud live concerts…
Fucking memories! I had these headphones and the bar style portable fm radio with the same color scheme. I’m so happy my tinnitus is pretty limited.
Yeah I’m hearing impaired on my left ear. Probably from sitting with headphones half off, playing world of warcraft and listening to loud music all day every day back in the day. I wouldn’t recommend it. I’m lucky in that it isn’t entirely gone, but I’d be lying if I said that it hasn’t affected my life.
