Its a low, rhythmic humming that I hear at night and doesn't seem to go away. I specifically hear it in my bedroom, but not my living room, kitchen, hallway, or bathroom. I put my ears against the walls in my room to try to figure out where it was coming from, but it was equally loud on each wall. I've tried different things to stop hearing the noise, but none have worked. I tried convincing myself that it was in my head and that if I focused on another noise or told myself that the hum didn't exist it would go away or lessen, but it didn't. I don't understand why it is only in my bedroom, and I am considering breaking my lease to move away and hopefully never hear this noise again. It hasn't even been that long and the noise is aready driving me insane.
