"Don't listen to your music so loud, you'll damage your hearing!"

And why does that matter?

Should I preserve my hearing so I can hear everything?

All the whispers behind my back?

All the yelling in the late hours when you think I'm asleep?

All the insults thrown my way?

All the fights which are traumatizing enough to see?

So that I can hear myself cry alone in the bathroom because I'm overcome by anxiety?

So that I can hear the alarm in the morning that alerts me I have another day of hell coming when I wake up to heavy thoughts and unresponsive limbs?

So I can hear every wrong note when I sing?

So I can hear the tapping of a pencil on the desk of the kid next to me in class?

So I can hear slamming door that would make me scream?

So I can all unnecessary criticism from my enemies, friends and family?

No.

I think I'd rather be almost deaf. Even if my hearing ain't all gone, then it at least everything else is quieter.

And play my music loud enough to cover it up.
