I cured my tinnitus for several years by taking 3mg melatonin @ 21:00 daily, thereby regularizing my sleep schedule. Then I slacked off when the melatonin stopped making me sleepy, and the tinnitus came back. It's also affected negatively by alcohol (positively, initially, but then the rebound anxiety kicks in) and also positively by benzos (again, unless I don't titrate after the dose I take to break a spike, and then there's hellish rebound anxiety and corresponding tinnitus amplification).
No. 1 learning for me: it's stress. Sleep, stress, and anxiety are all wound up in a big ball that vibrates at about 13kHz inside my head, slightly biased to the left.
