As a tinnitus sufferer, I was unaware of this link between tinnitus, sleep, and stress levels. Interesting, if bummer of an article. I have often thought of late that I'm not getting as good of sleep as I did when I was younger, and have been 100% attributing that to age, rather than tinnitus *expletive deleted*ing with my sleeping brain being a part of the issue.

Interesting connection. I've been thinking much the same as you that my lower quality sleep was attributable to age. I've never thought that my tinnitus might have something to do with it.

Tinnitus can be due to aspirin.
As a long-term aspirin user, I can attest to a number of unsung aspirin side effects. Long-term clinical study with N=1.

I run an air purifier and fan at night to give me white noise. I am in the back part of the house and that helps also since I am hypervigilant.

I get less sleep from an enlarged prostate more than I do my tinnitus. We run a fan at night to help with the ringing.

I run a HEPA air filter to cover up tinnitus. While falling asleep, I also listen to music using Beats Fit Pro earbuds. They rarely fall out during the night.
