Tinnitus, Deafness and Ear Problems Support Group
This group is for those coping with Tinnitus (ringing ears or ear noise), hearing loss, and all ear issues. Join to find support and get advice from others.
What's the deal with you anyway? Do you think when someone uses the word "Naysayer" that they are automatically referring to YOU? Get over yourself. When I referred to naysayer I was speaking to anyone who cuts down someone who might bring something new to this site. Just like you did on Zephiloyd. If you cut everyone down then you may be missing a chance for a cure. Well, maybe you and the other Naysayers may be pessimists but I am not. All I know is that I am feeling better than most of all the other people left still chatting on this site. Coincidence or not? According to you "who cares" right? I don't know you or anyone else for that matter. As I have said before I am not one to convince you if you choose to not believe me. If you feel like living with your tinnitus then good luck b/c I don't. I don't see you trying anything that is out there. I guess you are waiting for all the other suckers to try and then you can bash them. You only offer your negativity. I understand people don't want to waste their money but how will anyone know if something works unless it is tried out. Good Luck to you b/c if this is how this site works then you can suffer without my help. I'll be left trying on my own.
As John mentioned, it really boils down to opinion. And moreover, how personally one takes things. I have siblings and friends who like to tease, poke fun and generally be silly or "snarky" as Earitated said. I've learned what to take to heart and what blow off. Comments online don't tend to rattle me much but I understand that's not the case with everyone. When bogus promoters join our group they're easy to spot. They have no regard for us so in turn I have some fun with them. Thats all it is, folks.
If my mention helps someone save some money great but I often goof on product promoters simply for the sake of goofing. Yet in response I get "naysayer, skeptic, negativity". It's tradition.
Earitated, my arms are open and more than happy to bury the hockey stick. Her posts are always the same, however; she explains she's talking to admins and alwas adding severity where there is none to vent her frustration so I goof a bit with her as well as I feel she takes herself and my comments too seriously. No harm done. I'm all for moving on.
There are all sorts of people, temperaments and differing opinions online. Thats the beauty of participating in an open forum. When we start calling names and trying to control what others say it just wastes time in my experience. Thats why Doug added the "ignore" button.
Me 2!
Of interest, if anybody is interested is another product that promised the earth has also recently gone to ground. It's the Inhibitor. Big problems financially, claims of deceit and greed, partners fighting etc.... a real eye opener which highlights how cautious people need to be when parting with their money for some of these so called miracle products.
As far as Snowrider, I won't comment as I am too new, except to say there should be a balance between healthy skepticism and openness. It is essential, however, that any and all new approaches receive support in the effort to determine efficacy otherwise we may shoot down something prematurely to everyone's detriment.
I think I have asked you this before- have you habituated your tinnitus? both reaction, and perception?
Do you have any hearing loss?
