Yup. That's pretty weird. :-/

Super weird. The first time I had this sound, it took me two hours to realize it wasn’t an idling truck. The high pitch tones leave no doubt: they are internal. This is very different

Buddy admitting u have a qt swedish gf is a banable offence in these parts... Be careful!!

So... 'Objective tinnitus,' then?

I think I expressed myself unclearly. I have a new sound that's internal, but it sounds just like many other sounds in our apartment that are external. I can't really tell when it's footsteps above, when it's distant machinery, or when it's internal. And it's often quiet when I cover my ears which makes it even more confusing.

I think people call this "reactive tinnitus" because it layers itself on top of other sounds, and is almost not audible in silence

@HeavyMantra you have literally described my Tinnitus! I can't tell what is T and what are external sounds and like you said, it's almost not audible in silence.
