I did as a kid, but my tinnitus covers it up now.
I have tinnitus AND can hear my lightbulbs buzzing. Follow me for more tips!
It’s probably the type that’s brain side like mine. It’s not an ear thing but your brain has some reason for thinking you hear the ringing. But even so, I can still hear the slightest sounds. It’s bizarre because the ringing will be louder but I hear things that are quieter. It’s like having two sets of ears at once in those moments and is always unsettling.
Same. As a kid my hearing was sharp enough to hear the high pitched sound my neighbor's tube TV made.
