Tinnitus can be a real bummer. I've had it pretty bad since the 90's. But then you go on to get hyperacusis and you only wish it was Tinnitus instead! So I juggle between both on and off.
The Tinnitus can be astonishingly loud. When it's really bad and I'm lying in bed it feels like I'm at a Van Halen sound check and Eddie has simply turned up static to "11." Which means it's just as strange how unobtrusive it can be when it's not bad. For the most part I don't notice it these days and easily tune it out when I do. It does not affect my hearing acuity at all, as far as I can tell - it's mostly invisible when I'm listening to anything else. (Though sometimes I get "reactive" tinnitus in which the ringing in my ears is loud, and if I play music the ringing "rides" above the music so as I turn up the music the ringing just gets louder too, so it still distracts. That's rare, but when it happens I just forego music for that day).
For the OP, or anyone else who can be bothered by Tinnitus, one thing I've found helpful when the ringing seems loud enough to distract, is using a phone app for white noise. The main one I use is just called "White Noise" and it allows you to select from tailored versions of white noise -e.g. White noise, brown noise, pink noise. The "violet noise" a very narrow band of white noise, seems to mimick the frequency of my ringing perfectly.
It's really cool because if I turn it on and dial it just to the point of audibility, it so perfectly covers my ringing, but leaves the rest of the audible spectrum untouched, that it seems like I don't have tinnitus anymore. The room sounds "silent." Anyway, I find that if I just throw that violet noise on I can't hear the ringing so my brain stops focusing on it. After only a few minutes I can turn off the noise and the ringing no longer seems to be distracting as my brain has moved on. FWIW.
I had a horrendous re-occurrence of hyperacusis a couple years ago when I inadvertently was strolling in what turned out to be the path fighter jets were taking to a nearby air show! In other words, out of nowhere I was being strafed by squadrons of low-flying astonishingly loud fighter jets.
I ran as fast as I could to my car, but it was probably 1/4 mile away and even plugging my ears I could feel the damage being done. Even once inside my car, the whole things was shaking from the sound. My ears were utterly destroyed starting later that night. All sounds were super loud and harsh, sound was distorted like someone added white noise and a crazy "smile" eq to my hearing. Turning the pages of a book, putting a glass on the counter hurt. It only got worse, to the point my family even speaking to me hurt and then my OWN VOICE hurt my ears, so I couldn't even speak very loudly or for long. It was a very dark place to be and I understand why some people stricken with this, who don't get better, contemplate a way out.
It finally got me to try treatment, an off-shoot of TRT (Tinnitus Retraining Therapy), which involved hearing-aid-type devices that gently pump sculpted white noise in to my ears. Over time the idea is it re-programs the system to not respond to sound, especially in the hurtful frequency range, with alarm. Did it work? Hard to say for sure because I've been doing it for a couple of years. I can say that when I was in my acute early phase the gentle white noise offered real relief. My whole hearing system seemed to "calm down." Also, in that first month there seemed to be some pretty rapid progress. But it leveled off to a verrry slow journey back. At this point I'm about where I was before the air show incident.
I seem to have been still left with some hearing sensitivity at certain frequencies that can suddenly jump out painfully when cued. But overall everything sounds normal again and I can listen to music at least as loud as I have been for years.
