Your tinnitus is the result of SNHL. You will have to ignore the sound and focus on the sounds of surroundings. For bedtime, you can use white noise for distraction. It will go in some time.
Next Steps
avoid noise exposure. avoid taking ototoxic drugs. use headphones for not more than 30 mins at a time and  keep the volume low . over the head headphones are better.
