If you use your headphones during the day, then try not to set your headphones to play continuously while you're asleep. You'll be risking hearing loss to play sound you're not even hearing yourself.

One of the reasons I need to listen to music all night is because the ringing in my ears is so loud already. When I wake up in the middle of the night and the music has stopped I can't get back to sleep because the ringing sound is so annoying. My tinnitus got worse from aspirin and advil. I normally don't use headphones much at all, and keep the volume low when I do.
