Anyone else get this?

When I have been listening to quiet music or videos through headphones for a while, I notice there is a strong ringing in my ears. I heard that Aspies are somehow more sensitive to electromagnetic radiation. It happens to me when I've been exposed to my computer for several hours.

I don't believe I have the tinnitus due to hearing loss: I'm 18 and can still hear just past 17 kHz.

perhaps it is just tinitus, do you only get it after using headphones, i get ringing in my ears to but not just with headphones but whenever there is no noise, it might be because you have sensitive hearing.

I have tinnitus, I only notice it when there's silence though... I use in ear head phone most nights while I watch films etc on the laptop.. had tinnitus for as long as I can remember so don't think its linked for me.

Stu

I also hear a high pitched sometimes after having my headphones in too long, too. It also happens when I turn on some electrical devices, such as the television and the computer.

I've had that before computers and the ringing comes in different pitches and in both ears, though usually one ear at a time

I guess this is common. The tinnitus doesn't annoy me much, since I have also had it longer than I can remember.

I guess, you all must listen to way too loud sounds in your headphones. It will eventually ruin your hearing .Set the loudness as weak as possible and read about Db. Even quiet sound can damage you, if the headphones aret good enough.

Do you hear your computer buzzings? Ours do it constantly. Do you live in an older area or house? These have been known to give off amounts of EMF waves.. Also sometimes paranormal can cause it if you believe in that.

However it may be just leftover noise after you're done listening through headphones.

If you hear it a lot without headphones, it might just be the area you live. Or sometimes if you have eardrum damage you can get ringing sensation or tinnitus

I have tinnitus, which is a constant ringing in the ears. But I really only notice it when I'm in a quiet room writing about it... like now

Where did you hear about people with AS being sensitive to electromagnetic radiation? I am, and it seems to be fairly rare so I'd be interested to know about a link between the two.

I get a headache from wearing headphones or holding a mobile phone to my head for a long period. Certain kinds of phones (maybe the ones with wifi? It only seems to be some expensive modern smartphones) do it almost immediately. Fortunately I hate talking on the phone so it's very unusual for me to let anyone make me do it for more than a couple of minutes! I also bought some low-EMF Ultrasone headphones which solved the problem, so perhaps you could give this a try if you think you may be affected by this.

Be a good frind to yourselves and stop using those headphones. The ones, that plugs into the ears are the worst..
Analogue sound gives you a warning when too loud. It hurts, rattles and sounds in general awful. The internal ear muscels react.
Digital sound doesn´t do that! Digital sound cheats the ears to accept stronger sound before the alarm system become active, - much stronger, than the delicate, natural sounds, your ears were built for.
Think it over.
