And fuck this shit. I've taken extreme care of my ears ever since I was a kid (dad lost his hearing in Vietnam, so he was very adamant about my using ear protection)., I ALWAYS use ear protection... but apparently a lifetime of shooting guns, riding motorcycles, working in a shop environment, using all manor of power tools... has done its damage.
At least mine isn't terrible, I can still hear the world around me, but this fucking ringing.....

Just came on one day and never went off. I stopped clubbing because of it.

Not sure I have tinnitus, but I always have a slight ringing in my ears and for as long as I could remember. I only hear the ringing when electronics are on, which is everywhere now. If I go camping, it's gone. I'll walk down the street and it will get worse if someone in their home turns on their TV when I walk past.
I can still hear everything just fine, it's more of a background thing that is more pronounced when lots of electronics are on.
