I've had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. Most days I don't even notice it, it probably helps that I listen to music for 12 hours a day, but even sitting in a quiet area without music it's not intrusive unless I focus on it. Oddly enough though, it really flares up when I'm stressed, especially if it's emotional or relationship stress. I'm not sure why that is. It never really gets "bad" in that it causes me distress, but it gets very noticeable.
