Wait is this actually what tinnitus is? I thought everyone heard that
I hear it very infrequently, it comes maybe every couple of months, seemingly at random, and it will be a fairly loud eeeeeeeee ringing sound. Then it just fades away after a few seconds and I continue on, wondering what our alien overlords have uploaded into my skull this time.
Apparently a very slight case of tinnitus is just very common. Most people just don't get it diagnosed because it's not necessarily so bad that it is distracting.
I have sensory processing disorder and can absolutely hear electronics, so not necessarily
electronics sound different from tinnitus to me at least.
As far as I know I don't have tinnitus, so I can't compare.. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
