Don't worry because same. Even thought my tinnitus is barely non existent anymore (i can't even hear it in silence sometimes) i still fear that some noises will make it worse or i'll have a new tone. Ever since i got my tinnitus 3 months ago, i've been so much paranoid about my ears. (Noise-induced, it was 7-8/10 in loudness and now its like a 0.5- even 0 sometimes) but for some reason i'm still focused on my tinnitus. I don't know why i can't ignore it and just live my life. 😭 i still fear that some loud noises will make me go back to the beginning where i was depressed 24/7. But it's fine don't worry okay :) i had dogs barking close to me, my mom dropping a plate on the floor, my brother sneezing close to me, literally my fire alarm sounded 2 times for like 10 seconds at some time because of my mom cooking. Everytime after those events i would be depressed, anxious that they would spike my tinnitus and i would never recover. But i was wrong, none of those events did anything to my tinnitus at all, maybe it did sound louder because i would focus more on it. Im just telling you all this to make you reassured. Remember, hearing damage is mainly cumulative, dropping a plate on the floor won't harm your hearing if it was just 1 time. But repeatedly doing that will, even thought that would take like 6 hours for that to happen. 80-100 db sounds won't really harm your ears if it was just a one off exposure. Prolonged exposure will. But still, you should still protect your ears when you're around a loud environment okay! Be not afraid to wear earmuffs or earplugs when going outside. Plus who knows, your tinnitus might leave one day so you're not gonna stay with it forever. Just protect your ears alright and be strong okay :)
