hello this is my first post hopefully i can find some answers to a condition that has been happening to me...

once in a while right before i fall asleep i start to hear a really loud high pitch ringing in my head...now if i wake myself back up its gone. i sleep with a tv on so i dont believe its ringin in my ears...cuz it goes right away when i wake up.

i also sometimes can really move when i try to wake myself back up and also feel like im twitching...i dunno if im dreaming all this or if its really happeneing...i know....very weird first post but has anyone heard of anything liek this before or am i in my own boat LOL

thanks in advanced.

hearing sensitivity, you probably are hearing sounds that can be coming from electrical wires and television and such. You might simply have the ability to hear a frequency that is not normally there all the time but is random. I have had this problem since childhood . If you tell people they think you are crazy because they don't hear anything.

Hearing sensitivity. I have something similar I guess. Sometimes when I lay down to take a nap or go to sleep, I hear rock music playing (and I don't listen to rock music!). It is not coming from another apartment or outside. It's like I'm picking up a radio frequency somehow. Does anyone else have this? It's very strange and of course I don't tell many people! LOL

This ringing sound is the reason I can't sleep with a tv on - even in a different room. I have been able to hear pitches from tv's and computer monitors since I was very young. I can tell what is on even if it doesn't look like it's on - and the ringing sound is what I get if I try to fall asleep near a tv or a radio or anything that is remotely. It's not as obviously there to me when I am fully awake. The more tired I am - the more these high pitches are obvious to me.
