A low hum in Romania, Pite?ti
similar to a powerful engine running in the distance combined with powerful wind sounds; I used to confuse it with low-flying planes the windows from the apartment i live in all face a very busy and loud street. even at night there are no moments with no moving car in sight. also, i live in between 2 major hospitals, so the noise is increased by passing ambulances (often) and i find it weird that when i hear the sound at night and open the window to see if there is any parked loud car with the engine running outside, it stops. also i have a trained ear in terms of identifying distinctive sounds, from my long lasting hobbies regarding musical instruments and singing and i don t know of any sound that i can confuse with this "hum".
And regarding mental illness (there was a question above, but none of the choices were fitted for me), i was incorrectly diagnosed with bipolar disorder 6 years ago and took many types of medication since for treatment, including lithium, but also other medications with high-risk and unpleasant side effects. My last psychiatrist recommended trans-cranial magnetic stimulation, which had an incredible effect after too few sessions, which, along with other factors, had lead him to conclude that there was a strong possibility for the diagnosis to have been set incorrectly from the beginning. ever since this, i stopped any treatment and i have experienced no symptoms ( i know this info is not required, but, at the rate of big discoveries being made about the brain these days, it might be helpful to know as much as possible)

like an idling truck in the distance, but pulsed, i feel it by tissues between ears. I know that some companies have audio equipment capable of measuring very low audio frequencies (1Hz and …

It is exactly like in this video (I found it after some days, after a research for the hum source, without knowing the existence of this recording)

A very low frequency but not at the same frequency of Ac distribuition, i'm think at about 70-74Hz, with some phasing change, and some change in volume. I have tried to record also with spec…

Has this happened to you?
Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
Nothing is tracked back to you and nothing is sent on your behalf. The link is just the page you are reading.
