This is a first time documentary style film for a Collective film maker contest which was created, shot and narrated with help from my close friend Nathan who's decided to help me with my photography and RU-vid channel in my quest to make it a success.
I suffer from a debilitating inner ear disease called Meniere's Disease and it's time I start to share my story and help raise awareness. I'm currently undergoing testing for other illnesses I may have and will be sure to update my story as time goes on.
If you suffer from any of these symptoms and can relate, or simply need someone to talk to, please, reach out. These are just some of the symptoms I suffer from, unfortunately, the list also includes anxiety and depression. Thank you for watching and please subscribe as I plan to make a video series chronicling my experience.

i am 33 years old, and was diagnosed with menieres disease by the age of 23, it is hard living while coping with this, ito lost my ability to have a normal job outside, so i learned 3d modeling and digital art and started working on my own at home, i make my hours, i am able to rest if i have menieres episodes, life throws stones at us, but we have to keep going and adapt to it, i wish you all the best and keep fighting the way you do, i take my hat off to everyone living with disabilities with their dignity and heads up

I was diagnosed in 2012 but my first attack was in 2009 while pregnant landing on my stomach thinking I had killed my baby. Thank God I did no harm and she’s a healthy 11year old girl. I too like you had a great job, (vise principal of a school), very independent. I’ve lost everything, no income waiting on SSDI, I can’t even be home alone bc my balance is completely gone. I cry all the time bc it’s been 4 yrs going on 5 without driving and depending on others when sometimes they get mad bc I as for a ride. Or say “I’m not your taxi!” This is so debilitating having my kids help me all day and wait outside my door while I shower (no longer than 5min). I’m happy for you bc your able to go out and have found your purpose. I still haven’t and at times I give up! I too thought about making a video of this Disease for my family and friends to understand me. Glad you did take that initiative! May God continúe blessing you!

You described it perfectly. I had symptoms one time for 6 months straight. I was bed ridden, I had to relearn to walk, I lost 58 pounds because I got so nauseous I couldn't eat, in and out of the hospital. My doctor says I have one of the most sever cases he's ever seen of this specific disease. I have 3 caregivers now, I can't stand as well. I lost all of my hearing, I blamed myself for years, I hated myself for years. Nothing really worked. I'm allergic to medication so I can't take medicine. I even got a second opinion and a third, but these are the severe parts of it. I'm only 24 I had to give up my career because I get them every couple of days sometimes months of non stop. It's waves of this illness. It is very nasty and I wouldn't even wish this diease on anyone it's like being in prison with your own body. I was a concert violinist, I can still play but only for a few minutes a day. I teach violin to children now but I can't really move very well so I mostly do it by watching. It has ruined my life. I'm with you brother don't ever forget that.

@boonewtune Год назад

Jacob, my heart aches for you, buddy. I was diagnosed with Meniere's when I was 32, after particularly virulent episodes of vertigo. I was told that I would incrementally lose my hearing over the years...and that has been true. The hearing gradually diminished over the years...I needed one ear to have an aid, then some years later, both. Now, (after having been a professional musician) music is a cacophony of non-sensical sound most days. I've been to every clinic (House clinic in LA, Stanford, others) but all with the same result. But here's what I found over the years: If I watch my diet VERY closely, avoiding salt, too much sugar, NO caffeine (spins me within 15 minutes) keep small meals about 3 hours apart....then I don't go down the rabbit hole of vertigo. Added to that is a minimum of 6000 steps a day to keep the endolymphatic fluid from collecting in your cochlea: when that happens is when you will experience the "aural fullness" that leads to migraine, vertigo, brain fog and all the other stuff. Bottom line: STRONGLY manage stress in your life, avoid triggering inflammatory food elements that create an autoimmune response in your system. I miss music with all of my heart: but...I've got so many other blessings, I have to remember how well off I am compared to others. Praying for you, buddy. (I've got a ton of other hard-won insights on this disease, but I'll save that for another time.) :-)

Great video! Amazing job in getting back on your feet and seeing the light in midst of this illness. I have been diagnosed with vestibular migraines 10 years ago. I still have my good and bad days and always seeking new doctors and new treatments but I chose to not give up on my dreams. Sadly I did give up a few years ago and Went through severe depression in my 20s. I believe it is the reason as to why it took me so long to get back to a “normal”. I managed to get out of that dark hole and I’m currently in a respiratory therapy program and will be graduating in a few months. I still can’t believe how far I have come. I’m in awe of how much people can accomplish with having to deal with this. It’s a struggle but at the end we become so strong. God blesss and Thanks again for sharing your story ❤️🙏

@akaplatinum 3 года назад

Thank you for the video. Its validating to hear testament to an ongoing difficult situation. I am struggling right now and I think people must think I am nuts when I share exactly what you describe. 15 years of it. but 3 years ago I had a turning point in my life, Its hard to explain but I can't sit at work for 40 hours or stand say at any job I get sick but the one thing that had help me manage the extreme difficulties I have and that is exercise. I began by running a kilometer 3 years ago on the back of my property and worked my way up. Its my believe that through the intense workouts of an hour a day or more sometimes I am able to overcome the severe vertigo episodes that demobilize me for days on end. Because of the intense flow of blood and oxygen I believe it prevents the attacks. I can't lay in bed it gets worse, so what i do is something really simple and build on that. Good luck on your filming, I to will do a video sometime to describe what had helped me with the intent of encouraging someone who is afflicted by this horrible disease

Thank you for this video. I have had menieres fro 5 years now. This is going to sound wrong but I'm sure you'll understand. It's good to see a video that shows how others suffer the same. As it gives me a sense of not feeling so alone with this life changing disease. It is very hard to explain to people who do not suffer from MD just how frustrating or angry you feel. Along with depression and panic attacks about going out and being fearful of having an episode. For those of you that have MD or VM my empathy goes out to you. Hope you all find ways to manage it. Keep on going.

I was diagnosed with BPPV about 10 years ago after a scuba diving incident. i would get severe vertigo and in a split second would end up on the ground, After a while I could hide the vertigo by slowly kneeling down and pretend to tie my shoe because I didn't want anyone to know. In the past few months loud sounds like a dog barking would make my vision shake. I described it to my wife as my vision will vibrate like the glass of water in Jurassic park when the T-Rex was approaching. I always had like light headed brain fog and head aches in between vertigo attacks. Now my symptoms are more inline with Menieres .For a month now i have been taking Vitamin D3, K2 and Lysine (all purchased on Amazon) and have noticed the brain fog is gone and haven't had a vertigo attack since. Just passing that along in the hopes that it can help some of you out there.

Thank you for sharing this video. I’m 58 and have been suffering for more years than I can count. I’ve had severe vertigo to the point of losing my vision, the headaches. All of it. But the worst is the level of noise… in both sides. Multiple noises plus every heart beat. I can’t enjoy music or hardly anything. The volume has brought me to a high level of anxiety. I can’t stop holding my breath and I cant release my jaw. Most people go to sleep to release resistance. It only exacerbates my tension. Holding my breath in sleep. Waking up with my heart slamming because I’m not breathing. Waking up with my head slamming. I was sexually abused as a small child and I’m almost sure it has something to do with it. I’ve tried meditation and forgiveness for all involved but some part of me is resisting being here so much that I’ve lost control of any positive effect I might have on it. I’m seriously about to give up

I was diagnosed with “probable” bilateral Menieres 22 years ago. It very much impacted my career - I lost two great jobs because of long periods of vertigo (almost six months straight in one case). But I somehow managed to keep working long enough that I could eventually retire, although not nearly as comfortably as I might have been able to had this condition not entered my life. I still suffer from attacks of vertigo and dramatic hearing loss on a regular basis, and have tinnitus and some level of dizziness in every waking moment, but it’s easier to deal with now that I am no longer under pressure to do work on a tight schedule despite how I might be feeling.

@JacobDarkOfficial 2 месяца назад

If it wasn't for this RU-vid channel I'd be screwed. I developed anxiety trying to maintain a normal job that eventually caused me to break down. I've been diagnosed with Meniere's, Vestibular Migraine, MCAS and then also told I don't have those things but never given a real diagnosis and just asked to be put on pills to treat the symptoms. Glad to see you've reached retirement, I hope this channel never dies because I'll be in trouble.

I am convinced I have this. Went to several drs and not 1 can tell me why I’m having these symptoms. I’m just taking it day by day it really sucks bc I have 2 kids and when I get these attacks I just wanna lay in bed all day. I’m scared to drive far and alone its ruining my life.

How are you doing now? How often do you have episodes?

@carolhannahs1901 5 лет назад

I have been dealing with it since 2000, but it started coming more frequently and the ringing did not stop after the 8 hour episodes by August 2016. Several doctors later, I was trying to manage with steroid injections through my eardrum. I had gained back weight I lost because I did not have energy or balance to walk 5 miles a day. Thankfully, I work from home and there are only a few "hard scheduled" hours in my work week. After steroids didn't keep it in check and I was eating meclizine again like candy all day, my doctor wanted to go in surgically and just disconnect my ear. I was down to 30% hearing anyway. I declined but took the chemical route to deaden the ear. I still have non stop ringing in it and starting to lose hearing in the other ear but I manage. I am learning my limits. I don't look sick, but I have to tell friends etc when I make plans that if I cancel last minute it is only because I do not know when a vertigo or vestibular migrane will strike. I wear hearing aids, avoid loud places, do not drive unless absolutely necessary, get a lot of rest ( I used to go on 4 hours a night...now it is minimum 7 plus a nap midday for 2). No more shopping all day in the malls. It is 2 stores max and get home. Thank you for sharing our story...

@jacksaintjack2844 5 месяцев назад

I'm a guitarist. One morning I woke up and felt my left ear was full of wax or water or something causing muffled sound. ENT did tests and said ear was fine structurally but there was a fluid buildup in the inner ear from Meniere's disease. No cure. Depressing. I am fortunate because I had no vertigo or tinnitus. When people talk, it sounds like a buzzing bee talking. Couldn't understand a word in that ear. I am so grateful that I have excellent hearing in my right ear and thank God daily.

@csmg522 2 года назад

This video almost made me cry.( I have done enough of that already) I have only been diagnosed with this disease, for six months. I too have been a professional photographer/author etc. I am going to show this video to people who don't understand what I am going through. I can't do the work I used to. I've turned down clients. I can't fly across the country, rent a car, walk a show for 11-hours a day, for several days covering the event for a client, then fly home and do it again next weekend. If it wasn't for my wife and kids, I would have ended my life a while back.

Your comment resonates with me, I've been contemplating giving up photography bookings for a while now, especially when I have a bad day and have to drive to a shoot super spaced out, it can be scary and almost cause panic attacks, stay strong

@csmg522 2 года назад

@@JacobDarkOfficial You know what's funny, once I decided to quit doing photography, I started doing backyard gardening, then photographing my plants. I take immense joy now in working as hard as possible (some days it's only an hour) in my backyard, sweating, shaking, fighting the nausea. Im grateful to have some creative friends with whom I still do some video/photo shoots. They understand, I need to smoke Cannabis during our day long studio shoots. And need to rest frequently, even if it's a few hours. I've decided to try to master using a drone and editing. I also decided that I will never return to my formal "Normal", I need to find and create my new normal. Thank-you for being so articulate in your video, I have shared it with a few others telling them, this is 100% accurate in his descriptors of the disease.

@Dani_sister4peace 3 года назад

Thank you so much for making this video. I can only explain a certain amount of my symptoms to my family and friends. I've been chronically ill with issues since about 16 when agoraphobia and panic attacks and bipolar disorder started. I ended up in a wreck and my back was just fixed this year at 40. They still can't put their finger on what autoimmune issue it is that I have. But about 3 years ago I started getting sign after sign of inner ear issues and migraines. I've had migraines since about 18. I've been told i have menieres and I was denied disability for psych reasons 2 years ago. Now with full blown menieres disease and other conditions that I will have for life... Now I have to figure out how to live with menieres. I will be reapplying for disability. I want to work. I haven't worked since 2012. I live with my parents still. I'm going to try photography. This has given me ideas of things I might be able to manage to do with all of this. Thank you so much for your story. It's been hard to find energy for several months now. I'll have to find a new ent and hopefully they can help me too. Stay safe
