You probably do. Trust me, I know. When I look back on my behaviour in the first 2.5 years, I can easily say I did the same and the difference was minimal. You only do this to ease your confusion and stress caused by an invader in your body. The real answer is to focus on finding the calmness that lets you continue your day despite your suffernig. I'm not saying "accept it", but "accept it for now".
Tinnitus Talk Support Forum
Finding a way to function with tinnitus is a journey few of us want to take, but it has become your path in life and something you will have to embrace if you want it to go away at some point. Since you are so young, it will be a bit more difficult since you don't have the mental fortitude and life experience that adults often have. But I am here if you need anything. I am a veteran by now.
"Googling" for answers when it comes to t and h doesn't bring any good imo @lanterns&coffee It could even reinforce it because you focus on it even more. I would take @Strawberryblonde advice.
Something that took me a long, long time was to acclimatize to the idea that tinnitus is not dangerous. MOST of the time, it's not a brain tumour or anything that will cause harm to your body. It's just that because that sound is so BLOODY ANNOYING, you automatically assosciate with something harmful, since your very subjective experience is "Get me out of this hell!"
That doesn't mean that your experience is any less real or that your feelings are not to be validated, but after almost 5 years with this crap, I've become better at discerning between subjective and objective truth. I can look at this whole thing in a more neutral perspective now and that helped me calm down.
I am still as ferocious as ever when it comes to making this thing go away, but there's a time and place for everything and patience is very important here. Unless your tinnitus magically goes away on its own in 3 months to a year, you're going to have to have to adapt and develop new personality traits. I read the stoics, myself and I have changed as a person. Whoever I was before 31st of August, 2018 is no more.
It's normal to google search when you're suffering from head noise. We all want relief. I tried steroid injections years ago and have 3 sets of hearing aids with maskers. My expensive Widex Moment right hearing aid/masker has yet to be fixed after more than one month. They are supposed to be for tinnitus relief. Widex Zen has a good app with nature sounds you could try.
