Maybe, but almost anybody has hearing loss, when you're born you supposedly have a 20hz-20.000hz hearing range, which goes down when you age, though not everyone has T in their life and almost everyone has some sort of hearing loss or hidden hearing loss. Recently a friend said he always had t when he needed to do audiences as an 8 year musician, at that age he had very good hearing but he often had T's when he was stressed, and he's not the only one who observed this, other people have confirmed periods of T with sleep deprivation and times of intense stress.
My own personal observations says that it's more related to stress (or anxiety and worries) then anything else. I have always been almost hyper active my whole life and very stressed and worry easily. I manage to calm down one of my T's when I'm very relaxed, to a point I can't hear it anymore, mostly during night, but as soon as outside stressons, work or lack of sleep get in it rings harder, I initially thought that it was a physical problem, as I can stop this particular T when I put a finger in my ear, but I can confirm that when stress is down that T goes down. Now if I only could apply that to my 17 old high hissing T that would be great, but reading success stories here I'm confident that managing stress is the only way to a solution for myself, not just coping with it, but it may take some time, probably years.
The problem is that most people here are very skeptical to almost everything (including me, mind you but I'm getting away from it). We analyse too many things, when probably the solution is much easier then we initially can think of, I keep on reading the success stories, some very interesting info there. I still hope one day that they can regenerate hearing loss, but I needed a change my lifestyle anyway, so maybe T is the reason I will need to start to do it.
