"I've been diagnosed and know what caused it: drum kits, guns, rock concerts"
These "temporary tinnitus" episodes after listening to music I remember when I first got into audio as a teenager...... I thought it was just a "natural response" to moderately loud sound. (Although I don't recall hearing this effect after a live orchestral concert.)
I did make a big mistake at a Rush concert back around the year 2000..... I was not aware of "concert ear plugs" at the time, I've worn them at every rock concert since that time..... Cannot say whether the few rock concerts I've experienced without ear plugs had a significant effect on my hearing. (My right ear has slight otosclerosis, a very mild loss my entire life. My left ear has always tested "normal".) I've shot guns, but always wore hearing protection.
The only time I experience "continuous" tinnitus is when I'm sick, and my ear canals are blocked...... And the one time I tried "ultrasonic pest repellers"..... Made me get rid of them.......
Aside from the "temporary tinnitus" episodes, which I notice after listening to audio or using a computer, it always subsides to near total silence in about 10 to 15 minutes..... I almost never notice any tinnitus when I go to sleep..... (I may have it, but the "volume" levels are very low.) I often get "spooked" by the slightest of sounds at night, not to mention noticing my breathing and "heart beat".......
