Stress
It's not clear if stress is a causative factor of the ringing, but research suggests that the two are closely linked. The onset of tinnitus during a period of high stress or in the aftermath is common.
When the body experiences stress, it produces stress hormones. While they help the body function in the short term, they can take a toll over time, manifesting as a ringing in the ears.2‘Tinnitus and Stress.’ British Tinnitus Association, www.tinnitus.org.uk/tinnitus-and-stress
