I have had tinnitus for about 20 years now.
It is getting worse unfortunately.
I 'collected' mine when demonstrating security alarms which gave out 114 dBa every time I switched the damn thing on.
Hearing is so precious to lovers of music and musicians, so if anyone is reading this, take great care of your hearing.
Incidentally, I saw an interview a while ago with Engelbert Humperdinck, who also has tinnitus and said that he has at time contemplated"ending it all"!!
Thanks for the link I will read it .
