A loud hum-it comes on and off at night. I thought it was a household machine like a dryer/washer in the next home. But then the power went off one evening and I could still hear it. I ha…
both described a low hum · nausea
Subtle low drone, which reminds me of something like hearing bass from loud music a block or more away. Consistent in that any fluctuation is subtle, albeit it's not just a consistent note or sound expression such as in a musical chord. No noticeable pattern and no pulse like sensation for me. Sometimes it can cause a slight headache for me. I've noticed when laying down, it feels like I notice external stimulai such as a shaking of my bed frame. Very subtle and slight. My experience was initially noticed about 6 months ago when I moved into a new apartment. I initially assumed this phenomena had something to do with the environment since I had no previous exposure or at least fixation on it. After initial research I believed it might be underground gas lines, since there was actual work being done in this apartment complex on very old gas lines. Debunked since for one, the sound seemed to have stopped after a period of 2 to 3 weeks. Also the hum disappeared for me up until literally last night on 10/1/24, which started around 10pm at night. This caused me to perform more research and led me to this site which I had seen on multiple videos on youtube. To note, what has helped me is a combination of external noise stimulai. Such as a fan, as well as ear plugs. Upon the initial exposure, I had to use a combination of fan, sleep machine with white noise and ear plugs to get the vibration/hum down to something like 25%, which allowed me to fall asleep. Lastly, I will provide a non-scientific toolset I used that in my opinion helped remediate the hum, along with other more strange optical stimulai I was experiencing around the same time. I utilized a combination of spiritual based remedies such as palo santo/sage, salt cleansing and also Iron bell cleansing. Using heavy bells for the purification of environments has been used in a multitude of cultural religions as a protection or healing practice dating back very far in history. I only post this to provide info for this research. I am an stringent, logical minded person versed in psychology and I believe in the scientific method. That said I also am open minded and sensitive to spirituality and most important, philosophy. Perhaps my methods were coincidental in my perceived remediation, or even pychosomatic.. either way, my symptoms went away for months and now just recently returned. Lastly, I moved to the other side of my town in August, about 10 miles away from the residence where I experienced this for the first time last April. Which makes me doubt the specific environment as being culprit. Around 10 years ago, I was mugged and kidnapped by 3 criminals. I escaped physically unharmed with minimal financial damage. Albeit I realized about 3 years or so after that I have some form of PTSD from this experience. Around this time is where I feel like my hearing became more sensitive than I remember in my life prior to. Assumed this was due to the PTSD from this experience. But now, I wonder if som
