[ashleyb84]

ok i hade ringing in my ears for a long time,when i was 8 that about ten years ago well it been get bad very slowly,i quit going to public high school to a online becuase of the high noises it drove me nuts and made me very emotional becuase sometimes it triggers my mind that their screaming directly at me,when their actually talking noramal.i had to learn to deal with it,which it hard when all you hear is roaring sound in ears,i can hear okay,but when someone tries to tell me something it takes me longer to understand what i am suppose to do,it been worse becuase i been stress out lately,and the first time i hear how loud tinnitus gets(for example online summer school,my top wisdom teeth comming which i have to have surgery to pull both my top one out).okay i went to the doctors finally about this he didn't do anything expect a water thing to see if i hade water in my ears and  i told him about my teeth comming in and went on about cavities saying cavites could cause it and i need them pulled.well i had cavities way long before the ringing ever came around there is no way cavities caused it. i am just tired of staying inside with the ac to help my hearing bounce off and let me sleep.and yes the only person else in my family that has it as bad as i do is my dad

I had a hard time understanding you. You could
have used better punctuation.

But anyway -

I'm 51, and have had tinnitus since I was 17.

Mine's continuous (nonstop) too, as are most
cases of tinnitus, and occasionally it does drive
me nuts as well. I'm pretty sure my tinnitus is
sharper than yours.

Have you seen an ENT, neurologist or audiologist ?

You could request the ENT or audiologist to prescribe
a masker, or combination masker/hearing aid called
a tinnitus instrument, for you.

The masker's white noise will help to mask the ringing sound.
At the same time, the hearing aid amplifies ambient sound,
further helping to mask the tinnitus.
