::How many people here get ringing in their ears/head?::

All I can say is this.

My Computer IS causing my ears to ring.

I just built this new PC and the motherboard has a faulty capacitor which emmits a uber high frequency which ears can pick up on, even if you have headphones on, it will cut through as if you were not wearing them.

It really weird since the frequency is quiter than the fannoise but it cuts through and noticable.

Turn off the computer, the ringing is still there, hours later its gone or subsided.
Spend a day from the PC and no super high pitched eeeeeeeeeee........ in my ears.

My computer is on my right hand side and the most effected ear is my right.

Go to sleep and wake up the next morning, no sound ringing, sit at the computer for hours. . . .eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...............

There's some research done in Sweeden about electromagnetic frequencies from computers.

I just don't know if this affects everyone or just select people though.

It might sound weird but I think one of the reasons for this is because of silence. I'm not sure why, but one time I was reading about astral projection, and the article said that it's normal to hear "static" and "noises" at the beginning of meditation. They said it has to do with "leaving this dimension, hearing sound waves, and electrical frequencies".
On another note, there is a medical reason for this as stated many other times in this thread, but all the causes seemed to stem from not properly cleaning out your ears. I'll be happy to announce that I happen to clean out my ears frequently

This ringing u r experiencing is the effects of frequency radio waves which come and go, get louder, softer, It is part of mind control programming. To avoid the ringing effects which after time can make u nutty listen to music through headphone (which act as antenae) on ur mp3 player. The vibrations from the music empede the microwave frequencies u hear in ur ears.
Sounds like a bunch of crock.....but just try it and see for urself. Post back ur findings....I KNOW I AM RIGHT!

I dated a girl for a while who had tinitus. She was quite annoyed with it, though mostly when she wasn't preoccupied with something else. The worst time being when she had to sleep. Her trick was to turn on the radio at a faint level, just enough to give a slight disturbance. That could counter the worst effect of her condition.

There are many kinds of tinitus. Some like you hear ringing noises, others hear tones, and others again have the noise of a tv screen with snow on it.
I'm thankful that I don't have this yet.
In most cases it can be attributed to the small hairs in your ear breaking off, damaged by longterm irritation. This could be from working with loud machines, going to concerts or even listening to your iPod at max volume. It can even occur from working in an environment where you after some time don't think about the decibel level being a little too high.
As far as I know there are no definite cures yet

I agree to a degree.



I have noticed that more lately, there is a sound that blends with the fan, yet is of the nature of the whine, like a sound of what a dog whistle would be like, you have to be pretuned to recognize it or at least are more likely to frequency with it if you are familar as I am to the sound/piercing feeling.



This isn't the case with me. At times I wake up and as soon as I open my eyes and look around there is the familiar feeling/sound in the middle of my head.

It also seems to manifest frequently when I am taking in or exchanging information that seems important to me. As if my mental functions somehow play a part. I will go for weeks with out experiencing the tone and other times it will just make me want it to go away.

I have been checked by a doctor, even a specialist and was not appearing to show the damage to the hairs and other criteria for the tinnitus diagnosis, but if you go to wikipedia and look at all the potential causes it just about covers everything, even lyme disease as a cause.



I have wondered if I need a new tower because this "tone" as I mentioned earlier is not just tied to the computer although it does emit the same tone.



Good question. I have tried to avoid the mind control aspect as the culprit in this phenomena because to do so would be to give away my power and become a victim to whatever would do that.

Instead I got the idea when it first started that it was somehow physical preparation for higher frequencies in the future for whatever positivereasons. This is how I choose to deal with it. Maybe even a/my higher spiritual knowing alerting me to pay attention.

@all


Heres one I bet every one of you have done and not realized it.... Ever heard the ringing "in your ear" not really, then grabbed your cell phone as if someone was going to call yet its blank wait 1/2 a second later you have a new incoming call..

I hate answering the phone so i keep it on no sounds option meaning no vibe no sounds. This happens to me a few times a week so whether I like it or not I seem to pick up the darn phone before it rings and i have a mild sensation in my ears that one could call ringing before the visual alert on the phone. I use a verizon phone working off of cdma EVDO Phone This has happened on my past three phones over a 6 year time frame each phone being a diff manufacture, first samsung, second motorola , third lg.

Well, Joe, you know if your cell phone is near the computer and in some cases the alarm clock or even the car stereo you will get the static rhythem ahead of the ring. It even periodically will play the rhythem when the phone doesn't ring because they say it is searching for a tower, why on earth it needs to search for a tower when no one is calling beats the heck outta me, but so it is...........

As for you knowing before it rings, you may have a bit of sensitivity to the vibratory assault of the frequency that the speakers and such pick up!

I have what you call Chronic Tinnitus in my right ear from pistol/rifle fire. So basically it's a permanent ear ring, with 15-20% hearing loss in that ear. I still hear well. I can also feel things to hear also. The ring never goes away. It gets low at times, and other times it gets louder.

My ears always ring, moreso on the left side. I have perfect hearing, haven't had a headache in forever and I don't even remember the last time I was ill. When I try to meditate, it gets really loud ot the point that's all I can focus on. If my attention is brought to it (like this thread) it bugs me but I'm so used to it I don't really notice it most of the time since it doesn't interfere with my hearing, but it is indeed always there.

Hey, I dont know exactly how long you have had this condition but I have had it for over 22 years and we are talking about 24/7. Once you get past the ringing, something else kicks in and you are doing things that are not in the norm. Do you remember having any visitations?

Please do tell more........................

What kind of visitations have you had?

well my 10% hearing loss and subsequent ringing is a result of faulty equipment whilst working for Telstra and a combination of bieng a Jungle / DNB dj.......

after that my ears are well sensitive to high pitch noises plus I can tell when my neighbours and fellow room mates put their tv's ( and vibrators on ) lol.... without bieng in the room, its like i can sense high pitch freq. coming off the tv.... very weird indeeed

Personally I believe without doubt that some people have a ringing because of ear damage, but equally I believe there is some other electromagnetic input in the atmosphere that effects others.

Well my friend you are not alone.
I myself deal with the same issue. It doesn't effect my daily life but as I type this I can still hear the ringing. I came across your message and several others from different websites and its most likely not a unusual problem. How ever theres no saying whether its normal or not.
The only way I can describe the sound is as if the TV is turned on, a very faint yet high pitched sound. I can still hear everything normally its just that constant high pitched sound thats always there.
I actually noticed this when i was a little younger but I didn't take much consideration into it, but it seems the passed couple of years its got a little worse.
What struck my attention was the ringing in my left ear got loud and my hearing muffled for about 10 seconds but only in my left ear. Usually I can tune out the sound or just not even pay attention to it, but if I think about it, thats when its becomes annoying.
I've always assumed its a normal bodily function, but now i can only question what it really is.
At random times my ears wont stop popping, even with no fluctuation with elevation.
I haven't been around anything to loud, and I have no history of brain damage nor any hearing problems or problems with my ears, its just been something thats been there pretty much all my life, or as long as I can remember i noticed it.
Obviously this problem exists between any age, one article I read the guy was 50, same problem different circumstances. I myself am 18 and consider myself a kid, so i'm not expecting this to be a serious health problem but something I should look into. I've noticed i can really hear the ringing when I sit in a quiet room. you should try the same.
Good luck.

Pretty much everyone has ringing in their ears at some point. I think that it's a more logical conclusion to say that we're hearing something natural,instead of...we've all got tinitus. It's our natural vibration,our frequency. Tune in on it,and try to raise it. It's a good thing!!

i've had ringing in my ears as long as I could remember, although I find that when I stay active it's easier to ignore as opposed to times like now when I'm alone and there is minimal noise in the background.

edit: clarity as to what type of noise is minimal.

In my case, your board name answers the question. Now (and) Then. It does not last long and generally goes away in a while. I think it is related to my occasional lapse into a sugar coma when I get to close to a Baskin Robbins and their Pralines and Cream Ice Cream.

i've had a ringing in my ear for about 3 years now. constantly. no i don't notice it all the time, BUT it IS there and not the ambient kind that if you stop and listen yo hear it... it's on all the time.

i've been to a lot of loud music shows, and i ride a street bike without earplugs... all things considered, i do have the ring... (and it sucks)

I have tested with exceptional hearing in the high ranges and slightly below average in the low ranges. I don't have tintinitis (sp.).

I can troubleshoot a van with 40 different pieces of electronic equipment - simply by the sound.

I have heard the constant ringing as long as I can remember. A wall clock's signal used to keep me awake as a child. I can pinpoint which ring is coming from which objects.

I've had several serious head traumas; but, the hearing of the high pitched sounds existed before those traumas and still exists.

I had an extraordinary RESPITE from that constant ring - the China Earthquake! The quake made the ringing go completely away for a short while. It had reached a fevered pitch before the quake. The absence of the ringing was weird to say the least. Approximately 3 to 4 months after the China quake (I live in Texas USA BTW) the ringing started to come back ... little by little until now it is back to 'normal'.

High barometric pressure (which we get more in Winter) - I'm a human barometer.

At one time, I could manipulate three ringing tones AND blended them into a visual that is impossible to remember how it works now ... but, the spiral went both up and down and a third vertical direction ... which is like "Duh What?" to me now! I cannot manipulate the waves anymore.

I am glad to see so many other people have this too - at least we know we are not alone.
