There was a 16 or 17 year old guy on Reddit (at least I think it was Reddit) years ago–7 or 8 years ago–whose tinnitus was so loud and screechy that he could not sleep, could barely make out what people were saying when they talked to him, couldn’t even enjoy music anymore.
He made a post about how he was seriously considering ending his life. I think about that kid all the time.
I have tinnitus, but it’s quite mild and really hasn’t had any effect on my life. But people like that young man, it steals their ability to interact with the world and they get more and more isolated.

A cure would be awesome.
