How am I supposed to cope with having shitty ears at a young age? I developed ringing and partial deafness after listening to music on earbuds constantly through high school. I was depressed as fuck and a nervous wreck. All I ever wanted to do was listen to music because it let me cheat my way to feeling things. I didn't even listen to loud, just too constantly. Now I'm 19 and I sleep maybe four days a week, am too scared to leave the house out of fear of loud noises, and can no longer enjoy the only thing I've ever felt strongly about. I don't want to be alive with my senses this impaired. 50+ years of this sounds like a sick joke. Don't suggest seeing a doctor. I've done it many, many times. They can't do shit for ear problems. I was just born too early.

Maybe this is your problem. Get some sleep.
You won't develop tinnitus from earbuds unless the music is blaring almost constantly. Hell, I play music in two bands and gig at least once or twice a week and I only have light ringing despite never wearing earbuds.
Seriously, get some sleep, read about hypochondriacs, and see if things improve. Otherwise, you're shit outta luck.
