Hey Tinnitus Friends & Family, Find my free resources at www.habituate.online In this episode, I sit down with Stephanie, a long-standing member of MyTinnitus.Club and the mentor behind our community’s buddy program. Stephanie shares her deeply personal journey of tinnitus habituation – not once, but twice. After initially habituating, Stephanie faced a relapse that brought her back into the thick of tinnitus distress. But through Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and the support of our community, she found her way back to peace and resilience. In this conversation, we explore: • The difference between habituating once… and losing it • How Stephanie rebuilt her mindset through ACT and community support • The tools that helped her most (including music and mindfulness) • Why success isn’t an endpoint, but a process of inner alignment • What advice she has for anyone afraid they’ll never find relief Whether you’re new to tinnitus or worried you’ve lost progress, Stephanie’s story is a powerful reminder that habituation is possible—again and again. 🎧 Tune in now for an honest, hopeful, and healing conversation. Hear you in the next one! Frieder
