  • Same for me, but 13 years. No one mentions the shame and isolation. I felt like a disease that no one wanted to be around.

    If I ran into any old colleagues, it was clear they pitied me. The ones that did stay in contact just wanted the “gossip” (there was none), or wanted confirmation that I was somehow to blame so they could be comforted in knowing it won’t happen to them.

    I “didn’t do anything to deserve this”, but it’s hard not to take it personally. The ruminating – trying to understand “why me, and not someone else” – hasn’t stopped.

    The betrayal and shame is overwhelming.







  • Thank you for pointing out that the Soundcore over-ear headphones are good. I’ve wanted to try this brand again because of the price point.

    I’ve tried two different versions of the Soundcore in-ear noise cancelling buds and none of them did anything remarkable, IMO. I always went back to my Bose over-ear NC headphones.

    I wonder if that’s just a consequence of earplugs not being as good as earmuffs in general, though.
