Work with me 1-on-1: Click here to apply for Meniere’s disease coaching!

Today, I am excited to finally share this incredible success story, and for you to all meet Doug Monroe. In this inspiring and hopeful discussion, we walk through Doug’s entire hyperacusis and tinnitus journey, and break down all of the strategies, protocols, and techniques he used to find lasting relief.

(Doug does not have Meniere’s Disease, but hyperacusis and sound sensitivity are very common and very difficult symptoms that many Meniere’s patients face. If you have any degree of sound sensitivity, this video will give you so much hope!)

In late December 2023, Doug experienced a sudden onset of extremely loud tinnitus that changed his life completely. As panic and anxiety took hold, Doug began to experience insomnia, depression, and sound sensitivity for the first time in his life.

To make matters worse, several weeks later, his sound tolerance began to rapidly deteriorate. Doug became a prisoner in his home, and could no longer tolerate the vast majority of every day noises. He couldn’t talk on the phone, watch TV, drive, or even take a shower. He did not leave his house for 5 months, though as time went on, he started to see some initial improvements.

When I first met Doug last summer, he was recovering from a retinal detachment injury that had triggered a complete relapse of his symptoms. He was once again a prisoner in his home, feeling completely hopeless.

But over the months of working together, Doug went on to experience a full recovery from his extremely severe case of hyperacusis and tinnitus!

In the video, we discuss:

  • Doug’s personal background and story of how he developed severe tinnitus and hyperacusis
  • Becoming a prisoner in his home for 5 months
  • His initial attempts to find relief
  • The retinal detachment injury that triggered a complete tinnitus and hyperacusis relapse
  • Having to start over as his sound tolerance went to zero for the second time
  • A complete overview of meditation-based tinnitus habituation and hyperacusis desensitization protocol we utilized to help Doug find relief
  • Doug’s rapid progress and improvements early on in the process
  • The big wins and milestones Doug experienced along the way
  • Utilizing musician’s earplugs for progressive environmental sound exposure therapy
  • How Doug was able to habituate to his reactive tinnitus
  • What Doug’s life is like now
  • So much more!
