I can't get out my high notes without blowing very shrill and loud.

High notes are very difficult to play well and in tune. It can be done, though! Here is a great practice technique:  Start with the Bb that sits above the first leger line on top of the staff.  Play this note as long as you can and practice doing crescendos and decrescendos on this note, always with a beautiful tone.  Once you are able to do this in tune (practice infront of a tuner) you should take this beautiful sound (not the pitch) of this note and transfer it one half-step higher.  Do this by playing the Bb maybe for 4 counts and crescendoing into the B-natural.  Hold the B-natural as long as you can and decrescendo it.  Practice this set of notes until the B-natural sounds as good as the Bb.  Once you have done this, move on to the C and then Db then D, etc.  This is not something you can fix overnight.  It could take weeks of really good concentration and listening to what you are playing.  However, you will be very pleased with the result.  Eventually you will be able to play the whole sequence as high as you desire as part of your daily routine, which will keep your lips in shape.  Remember to keep your body relaxed so you are not forcing, the notes will come out easier with time.  Check out practice books by Mary Karen Clardy and Trevor Wye.  Both should have examples of this exercise.

it's called Tinnitis, and it's usually caused by damage to the inner ear.\n\nit's a lifelong curse, i'm afraid - so get used to it.  if it ever gets so bad it's driving you crazy, they can give you a specially made hearing aid that generates noise of the approximate same type constantly, which will train your brain into ignoring it.\n\ni've got it, and it usually dosen't bother me that much...

A] Adjust the mouthpiece.\nB] Make sure you're pressing down firmly enough.\nC] If it's your breathing/blowing, try breathing exercises.

I have some advice, if you have a good voice don't sing in that style it will probably ruin it if you've never done it before.  Screaming is very, very hard on a female voice.  Work into it slowly.  I almost ruined my classically trained voice by singing in a garage band.  Don't try to sound like anyone else, find your own unique groove.

Your aperture (hole in lips) may be too large and you may be directing the air down too far.  Try placing the head joint upside down on your upper lip and get a sound.  Keep your lips in that position and return the head joint to your lower lip.  BLow the same way and adjust the position of the flute until you get a sound.  Fast focused air will get it.

That high pitched tone is probably tinnitis. It is a condition caused by prolonged or repeated exposure to loud sound.\nIt can worsen if the source(s) of the problem is not eliminated.\n\nTake off the headphones or at least turn them down.\n\n\nThe sound of silence is the sound your soul makes when speaking to your heart. It is only during this time that a person can truly figure out who and why they are.

Most definitely the music is for too long and it's too loud. Your body will always give you a warning first that you are abusing it and then break down if you continue. Also check for wax.

Also try listening to really heavy DOOM metal bands slowed down. Try listening to a Neurosis EP on 33rpms...your brain may explode!

i know what are you making through, i hate it too when my neighbors make loud noise at night , making a party all night long, and sleeping over the day over,... you have many solutions, first of all, find some people in your building who does not like this noisy thing too, ask them to make a list or something and go to the person who is in charge of the building, you can show him this list and he should make a conversation with the noisy neighbors, or you can do it very comfortable for you by using ear pads or headphones and play on your CD player or radio some music which helps to make you feel peaceful with yourself at night, ... there are in the market a lot of Cd's for relaxation , nature sounds and so on, so you can not hear the noisy neighbors at all, or use some ear pads, that people wear in factories to protect themselves of hearing loud noises...

Sound like a blocked salivary gland.  Go see an ear, nose & throat doctor.  They can clear out the ducts.

You are missing out on great training. It sounds as though you're too much of a "diva" to learn your craft. I'm a music teacher and a voice coach at the university level and I'm here to tell you, harmony is a big part of your craft. You can only lose your own style if you allow it to happen.

Maybe you speak too fast. Try to be calm and speak a little slower.
