I have!
... but not through any conscious method or effort. In fact, this post just "reminded" me of the fact that I had regular and occasionally severe tinnitus over the course of many years. Mine started in high school and persisted well into adulthood. Possibly rooted in a couple of concussions I suffered in reasonably quick succession, possibly too much time under headphones too loud.
Right now, I have to think hard to even recall the sensation, which I take as a pretty strong sign that I haven't suffered it for quite some time. Anecdotally, I can say that I haven't used headphones to listen to music in probably 15 years, and I'm gentler in general with the volume knob now than when I was 15-25. Nothing else jumps out as a possible contributor.
Hopefully this reminder about the condition's existence doesn't trigger a relapse. I'm terribly prone to suggestion.
