Welcome to the club. For what it's worth, you get used to it.

Just bear in mind that once you have permanent tinnitus it'll only ever get worse, so look after your ears as best you can. It's not the end of the world, I've lived with ringing in my ears for over a decade and to be honest it's only an occasional mild annoyance. If you can avoid it altogether, good. If not, well, we all make mistakes, and there's no point dwelling on the past, just try to avoid making the same mistake and making things worse.

Edit: there are non hearing damage related causes for tinnitus as well, if you're concerned, see a doctor. If you've been exposed to very loud noise for extended periods of time it's most likely hearing damage though.
