Did anybody else just think they could hear electricity when they were little?

I’ve had an old TV following me for years
fastjeff
I didnt used to have it, now I live in a world of background noise or I will go insane.

Oh how I miss being able to sit in a quiet place and enjoy the silence...

Fucking tinnitus. Constant tone for several hours then one ear decides to get louder than the other for a bit.
Zcarto
I hate the times the tinnitus decides to intensify the EEEEEEEEEEEE x10 for about 10 seconds and then go back to eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
barnwolf
That's the sound of electronics humming, can't get away from it these days.

8200 all day, every day. And at night.

Holy crap that tone generator is great, 7800 hz, says hello, for the last 30 years....

I didn't know I had tinnitus, until I read the explanation of what tinnitus was. I went for years believing everyone heard that.

Just crank up Them Bones even louder, you'll hear it again eventually surely.
BirdGuyJosh
Wait, is that why I get a high pitched whine in my ears every so often!?
BillandTedsUnremarkableTripToCostCo
If it only lasts a moment, that’s a different phenomenon that happens to everyone sometimes.
keyblader1985
I don't have it, but I've heard that it can help if you thump your backside around where your neck meets your head.
vampire49
Thump it hard enough to knock yourself unconscious?
azimir
Some forms respond to that. Not all do, but worth giving a try.

I hear different frequencies in each ear. One is higher than the other. At night I hear classical music whenever there is no other noise distractions. Eeeeeee and iiiiiiiiii
Serkus
I wish I could go back to a time before the ᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉ. ᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉ's all I know now.
tootallforthisroom
Yeah, it's pretty much constant for me. Most of the time it kinda just fades into the background and I "forget" it, but occasionally it's right up front, and rarely it's so bad it's difficult to concentrate.
SirDalud
TheFakeCraigFerguson
I have TMJD. Have had it since my young teens. Pisses me off cause a mouth guard would have fixed it when I was like 8 but my insurance wouldn't cover it and I've been forever cursed with endless eeeeeeeee and jaws that pop so loud others can hear it.
EmeraldLight
I don't remember a time without it, but head trauma as a toddler, twice, will do that.
twfx
I know loud is proud when you’re young, but it adds up. Even things like leaf blowers, power tools, vacuum cleaners and even riding with the car windows down can cause permanent damage. Keep earplugs handy, it’s a one way trip otherwise
SnailsAgainstTungstenSpheres
Damn I've had it for so long I never hear it until I read about it or someone mentions it. Back to the ᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉ for a bit I guess. It's like The Game that you all lost.
Foxsayy
This is me too. Why did they do this.
JulianLake
I literally got 5 seconds of my tinnitus clearing up last night and I cried. It came back, but that brief respite was amazing.
TheFluffySingularity
I don't have it myself but have heard of a technique for temporary relief or at least lessening of the noise, if you want to try. Start by cupping your ears with the palms of your hands and add some pressure, then use your fingers to thump against the back of your head/neck. I think as hard as you can? Keep it up for a half-minute or so while keeping your ears cupped. Seen people online say it has cleared their tinnitus up, at least for awhile, so hope it really works.
Cevius
I think the idea is to put your index finger over your middle finger, and basically slide the index off the middle finger so it clicks into the back of your head, almost like snapping your fingers. From what I read it provides the tiny hairs in your eardrums with another sound so that they temporarily reset, but the ringing will quickly return.
JulianLake
That is a good tip for others, but in my case it only lessens the noise for a few seconds. But thank you for spreading this info out cause I know it helps other people 👍
zolamillie80
Worked for me on one ear but not the other..,
WhyMustIBeLikeThis
This might seem weird but I find the eeeeeee's comforting. I don't think I would like the silence without it. I've heard people get really annoyed with it and have to always be listening to music or something, I just never understood why.
Serkus
Nah, I get it. For me, it's like there's a mischievous sprite that has control over my ᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉᵉ dial. Turning it off and on, up and down.
Serkus
If it was a constant, I could probably get used to it. But it's random and unpredictable, which forces it to the front of my consciousness.
Itslukus
Well, for what it's worth, a perfectly silent forest is terrifying... I'd rather hear eeeees then for it to all of a sudden go quiet on me.

I've had a subtle eeeeeee for as long as i can remember, I honestly don't even notice it most of the time. Is that tinnitus?
Mebae
I didn't know I had it for the longest time, I just thought I hated silence.
BinkiBinks
Yup! Welcome to the club. Take a t-shirt!

FeIineDisrespectFromBehind
Thanks I guess haha. I wonder how I got it though. I can't remember a time that it wasn't like this.
DrMoneybeard
I've got it about the same as you, usually doesn't bother me unless I'm feeling unwell or otherwise irritated. If you want to experience temporary actual silence - press the heels of your hands against your ears, and gently thump the back of your head with your fingers for about 30 seconds. Should sound like you're underwater. It sort of resets your hearing for a little while!
FeIineDisrespectFromBehind
Oh interesting! I'll give it a shot!
Emkem
Holy shit! It's so quiet now!!! No wonder I can't hear anything on TV! Thank you so much for this!!!!

~6500 Hz checkin in! https://onlinetonegenerator.com/
Widgetboy
I can hear a tone up to about 8000. Above that, it just sounds like my tinnitus is cranked up. Is that normal?
guyanesebro420
17500 check in at 30 years old
TheoryOfRelativeTea
Same. Lower end in 110 for me.
CardboardEmpress
My main one appears to be 5400Hz
tylerPumpkinTraveler
Me too but then mine weirdly comes back in this narrow band around 9000.
GuitarBobMonterey
omg, I can't hear above 2800! Guitar Bob shoulda been more careful. :-/
witmanfade
3100 here...

Multiple tones between 15000-16000Hz, oof. Cool site, though, thanks!

Oh shii, that is almost my exact eeeeeeeee

My "eeeeeee" is something like 12000.

6650 Hz.
Gigas85
3000 Hz. All day, left ear only.

petresun
Most I can hear is 12500 hz. I used to be able to hear a TV turn on.
Mxlespxles
Me too! I forgot about that sound
SatansBestBuddy
18000 hertz, which doesn't seem right to me but I was going down from 20k and couldn't hear that or 19k so going from silence to not-silence was pretty definitive
uden10
Same, after ~18,000 hz I can't hear anything.
vampire49
LOL! Played the 6500 Hz tone and my wife about jumped out of her chair! "What is that?" My life dear, my life.
ThatsNotMyPenisPump

Here you go, random irritating sounds. Just use the code in your browser's console, while on that website: https://pastebin.com/raw/vzB7sXtP

4000 Hz give or take here.
honda4wssi9
My notch is right at 3KHz. Otherwise, I can hear really well unless we count the exposure-induced CPD.
cosonfused
i prefer this one https://www.checkhearing.org/tinnitusmatching.php
fractalsphere
Interesting site. I can hear from 45-13750
Rusticshine
17850 is my max before i can't hear it anymore.
NeverConfusedForNaught
A lot has to do with the speakers/headphones you listen on too
imsurroundedbyassholes
~16300

Nice.
feryooday
Damn I’m deaf to that. sorry my dude
imsurroundedbyassholes
I could hear when a TV was still on as a kid, now I can never not hear that sound.
Scruffy2
That was crazy! I got to 20,000 hz, but the site won't go higher
zoiy
I did the same and ended up yelling "F*ck me" I hate tinnitus.
petresun
Yeah. My phone started staticing out at 15500.
Scruffy2
It would be fun to get an actual hearing test, but I live in the US, that costs money
gentlemansprophet
20,000 hz is typically the upper limit for human ears.
Scruffy2
I've read that's true in general, but up to 26,000 does happen.
Scruffy2
I misunderstood the assignment, I was seeing what I could hear, not matching the tone of my tinnitus
