Hello everybody
I am David from Spain and I suffer tinnitus since January. I am 31 and I play guitars in metal bands since I was 16. After a rehearse, I went to bed with my ears ringing and nowadays, my ears are still ringing.
This is definitely a serious illness. Doctors can not help you, there is no cure. It is very easy to fall into depression. Try to imagine hearing noises that are only in your head and do not never stop.
Please, if you play in a band, be aware of your location within the rehearsal room, have you got a PA speaker close to your ears? Be aware of the amount of sound you handle in a band. And, please, protect your ears. Isolation headphones are better than in-ear protection. If you break a string you can buy a new set but if you damage your ears, there are no spare parts.
Please, protect your ears, I wish nobody have to go through this.
