Fluid/loud noise
I'm feeling really down today and I was just wondering if specific causes for tinnitus have specific sounds or, rather, does an acoustic shock that causes tinnitus tend to just have one or perhaps two sounds whereas say stress induced has multiple sounds?

And has anyone heard lots of different sounds but got better anyway, say like, all tinnitus sounds going away?
 
I have different sounds quite often. Even after all these years I can't for sure pin down any particular cause for a particular sound. I just know that the shrill "teapot" is the worst.

As far as volume, it also varies some. And I can't for sure pinpoint reasons for that either. I know alcohol helps to relax and maybe reduce or have a sense of reduced volume. But I think the payback is after the alcohol wears off. I swear if I were to rate the volume a 7 after a few beers, then I get a 13 when it wears off.
