My god, I would give anything to have the high pitch ringing in my ears subside. I’m only in my twenties & I always thought I took care of my ears, although I do listen to music/watch movies with in-ear buds or with a pair of circumaural headphones. I have stopped with the heavy listening of music. Which, I used to listen to about 2–3 hours of music a day with ear buds. I now limit it to just 20 or so minutes, at a soft volume. Not sure if it will ever go away, but every now & then, maybe once a week, that stupid ringing will kick in & I just want to Van Gogh on my ears. It’s not as high pitched or frequent as it used to be, so I’m hoping as time goes by, it will occur less & less.
