My brain is picking up a radio signal

Samme said Nov 21, 2008, 4:19 PM:

 

Hi I am Samme.  I would like to thank Debbie for creating this pod/group.  I have this recent experience that I do not share too much with my friends in my immediate physical surrounding here where I live because they will not believe or understand and will think I am crazy.  I have told it to some and they did not believed me.  I already said it to them and I am not going to persuade them to believe in my story.

So here is my Hearing Voices story.
One day I just suddenly hear voices, not with my ears I can tell but more like “I am picking it up” like a radio signal.  I can hear a person talking fast and that is not my imagination, I can hear and discern the words being said and then I heard music.  I am picking up something!!!  I am thinking it is a radio station but I don't know.  I checked my radio to see if it is on and just set to a low volume, but it is really OFF.  I am inside my car (with all the windows closed) and my radio is off.  Then when the song ended the voice came on again talking fast and then I heard “101.1 FM” so I turned on my radio, and my radio is not even set to 101.1 FM, I went to 101.1 FM and indeed the voices in my head is what is being said at the radio at the same time.  I turned the radio on and off and on and off and the voices in my head coincides with the radio.  I do not have any radio in the car, no Walkmans, no portable radio with headphones that may have been left on, NO none of those.  So I decided to drive away because I may just be hearing it from a distant radio that is on.  I drove away and I could still hear the voices in my head with my car radio turned off and I was far away from where I started and I am still hearing it.  I was just simply and smilingly accepted that at that moment, I was picking up a radio signal.  Can you believe that???
thank you,
Samme

Hi Samme, Yes I do believe you… It has happened to me before…
I remember when I was a little girl it was very early on a Saturday Morning and there was a parade in downtown Chicago ,and I was laying in my bed , in Buffalo Grove , several miles away ( I believe we were like 10 Mins away from the downtown area , we lived in a subburb of Chicago ) Anyway,  I could hear the band playing very distinctly… I could hear the drums and the horns and the crowd . I could hear in  such great detail that I remember getting up to look out my bedroom window to see if the band was coming down my street. Like you, there was no TV  or radio playing ,,, My parents and sisters were asleep , it was very early and noone seemed to be up around the neighborhood either…
sometimes we do pick up  other radio waves in the air, especially if we ourselves are what is called “broadcaster” meaning we broadcast messages as we get them… .. we are the message carriers…
so I believe you… 100 percent… Love and Blessings.

hi samme and littledove…how interesting… samme why am i not surprised to see you here - spirit has been telling me there is something more to you than is seen:) and i saw your picture on two profiles and thought i should ask you to be my friend..then i had to look thinking…are we friends? why is she standing out to me:)

samme - i have also found that when it is a good period for spirit to begin whatever the thing is you will jointly do, you begin receive levels of awareness in preparation of this. so, you might want to relax in meditation and if you're ready - go for it. just say, to spirit, i am ready to receive the messages that you are sending me. i can now hear beyond ears and am open to your voice.

sometimes we are experiencing that which is different than being psychic - because it is actually transpiring at that moment. so… you could very well be just experiencing what is being said or played on the station too. because we are all connected. if it happens again, pay attention to the song or the discussion.

cool…wonder what spirit has in store for you:)

we are one

Samme,

If for no other reason than to be here for you, this group would be worthwhile.  I believe your experience.  I believe this shows that you are able to “tune” in to the electro-magnetic sound waves that are all around us so densely.  I've often wondered about the effect on people of that.  I am thankful to now live in a very quiet place, free of that, to a great extent.  The density is more diffuse.  I did become aware that these were impacting me, when I lived in the city of St Louis.

I think this awareness of your ability will begin to expand for you.  I know that metaphysically there is a concept of resonance, or alignment with, qualities of vibration and that influences what manifests for us in our life.  Therefore, I see that this is a learning experience for you, letting you know that you have the ability to tune into unseen energies with your mind.

I am grateful that this can be a safe place for you to share.  That you can feel acceptance and understanding among those called to this group.  I agree also that each experience is “personal”.  Even though what we “hear” may be interpreted in some conventional way, there are also spiritual or metaphysical interpretations meant for our personal individual development only.

Wishing you only positive experiences of the unseen reality-
Deb

I’ve just been having a little look around here and just had to respond to this post with a….. me too!
I pick up a radio signal also, mostly at night when I am still and quiet and if it’s hot and I have my fan going. There seems to be a connection with white noise, like a fan or a tap running etc.
The noises for me are voices and sometimes singing, but I can never really quite make out what is being said, or just snippets…not enough to make sense.
So you aren’t going mad….well I don’t think so anyway…unless I am mad too.
I have heard of others speak of this phenomenon and I have to conclude is has to do with an individuals energy modulation. That’s my theory any way.

Hi Karin Maree!
You can't imagine how excited I was to find this group, but particularly your post. I've been hearing music, voices, radio talk shows, etc. for a little over a year. I believe your theory is correct: warmer weather and white noise have something to do with it. I've done my own “research” for lack of a better word, but these are definite factors in my experience. I've driven my parents crazy, waking them up in the middle of the night to ask if they could hear what I was. I've even discussed this w/ 3 therapists, who all wanted to believe me, though I could tell they also thought I was hallucinating. Heck, for awhile I was convinced. Then I thought about earplugs (like you use around heavy machinary). They worked! For 2 weeks. Then came the repetative bits of music - little snippets. Just enough to drive me crazy again. I then unplugged as many items as possible in my room, turned off my white noise machine, and tried again. I still picked up music faintly, but not enough to keep me awake. Oh yeah, my fan WAS still running. I've gotten so used to the cool air on my back at night. But is it worth it? I have problems enough with sleep due to horrific dreams, and then the music and talking really ate away at my soul. I nearly reversed my sleep pattern - sleeping most of the day, staying up at night. I was a zombie and a walking time bomb. Anything said to me I took the wrong way. I snapped at my dogs, just for doing dog things. Everyone was worried and talking about hospitalization. At this point I began research; googling patterns of radio waves and how they bounce. I thought, “if FM radio waves are sent out via an antenna, then bounce off of satellites and then into our radios, why couldn't they bounce again after hitting earth?” I think everyone realizes FM signals come in sharper late at night, as well as being able to pick up stations you normally couldn't. So why is it so hard for most to make the leap to believe, or consider, that certain people who draw more electro-magnetic energy (every time Fall begins, I start shocking myself on anything metal) can hear radios playing, or actually pick up radio waves. To push the envelope further,  since these waves bounce, why, under certain specific conditions, can't they bounce quickly and repetatively off of elctronics or people (like ping-pong). I'm no physics professor, but there has to be some reason. BUT, in the mean-time, I'm so happy to have found you and everyone who has written about their individual experiences. This, alone, has helped me in ways entirely unmeasurable. Thank you.

Lori,

Welcome.  I am so happy we exist and can be here as supportive friends for you.  I recognized that while the experiences of the type that people in this group have are more common in our modern times (and I believe this is an evolutionary trend), they are still not experiences that everyone has.  And as you so eloquently explain, we are often treated as though we have some kind of mental illness, and begin sometimes to even believe that there must be something wrong with our own self as a result.

To find the commonality of experience, that sharing here reveals, is such a reassuring breath of fresh air for each of us.  It may not make our path easier but it does give it more context and meaning.  The presence of so many sound vibrations in our environment is a new stressor for humanity, which I recognized for myself over 20 years ago.  Just because these waves are not “audible”, to the external hearing equipment that a human being possesses, does not prove that they are not audible on some other level of Being, especially in more sensitive individuals.  Sensitivity is a positive trait, though it can be a challenge at times.

Peace & Blessings -
Deb

Since I was a teenager (living out in the very remote country, on a ranch, FYI) I've heard what seemed to be partial conversations or random, short sentences… something you would hear while changing television channels, perhaps. Although the words are quite clear, these have always seemed “impersonal” to me, as opposed to something that someone was saying to me, as a message.  The voices were distinct, and none I'd ever heard before. It always happens mostly at night, while I'm lying awake in bed.

Interesting thread!

I just found this today because of an online search I did on google…….can my brain pick up radio signals. I have had this happen to me at least 7 times now in the morning just as I am waking. At first I thought the radio was on. I can't quite pick up what is being said but it is a conversation of sorts. Sorta of sounds like a talk show !! I wondered if I was picking up a radio station or somehow was picking up conversations occuring on another dimension. I am so happy to hear others have this happening to them too. Any thoughts or new experiences, I would love to hear them.

Glad you found us.
For me it tends to happen the most when there is 'white noise', some sort of muffled or repetative sound in the background. I hear it the most when my fan is going, or when water is running, that sort of thing.
Sometimes its music, other times it is conversations and sounds just like the radio.

Come to think of i, I've mostly had these experiences in the shower..while the water was running! But they are short sentences, or partial conversations…and they never seem to talk to me or anything like that, they're just talking. It's almost like i'm eavesdropping on their conversation.

 

Re: My brain is picking up a radio signal

iamsohappy said Aug 4, 2009, 7:02 PM:

 

Interesting the only other reference I found to this topic on the internet was people who thought that possibly there dental fillings were picking up radio signals. Other possible explanation I came up with was perhaps our brain's memory bank is playing back an old memory of something we have listened to before in out past. I know that I heard a conversation that sounded like a radio station but I have no explanation for it.  It was so distinct I had to ask someone else in the room if the radio was on.
I am also wondering if any of us who have had this happen to them have anything in common, such as dental fillings ( I know sounds absurd) or maybe some sort of other aspect of ourselves that we all have in common.  Karin, I was wondering, is yours a regular occurence? Mine has been totally intermittent, with no pattern except in the early morning just upon waking.  I guess since no one else is really discussing this topic except you and I, it will always be a mystery how this occurs and why.

Re: My brain is picking up a radio signal

Karin Maree said Aug 6, 2009, 12:13 AM:

 

I have also heard of this, dental fillings somehow picking up on radio waves. And yes, I have fillings.
I tend to think it is a vibrational variance. I have heard of several people talk of this since I started to confess this was happening to me. Many of the people who speak of it also experience other things as well, of a paranormal nature.

I once heard the 'radio' every night when I was trying to get to sleep. That happened for over a year, but for the past few months I haven't heard it much at all. Perhaps that time as I settled and relaxed ready for sleep was the only time my mind was still enough for anything to get through. The only time my mind wasn't full of it's own endless chatter, with thoughts of chores, and worries about situations in my life. It's interesting yours is also happening at a similar time, when you first wake.

 

Re: My brain is picking up a radio signal

iamsohappy said Aug 6, 2009, 8:01 PM:

 

Karin, what do you mean by vibrational variance?
Any internet references you can point to?
At this point other than the fact that it has happened, I have found no real significance to the event. I don't really find any particular spiritual significance to it, and  it could be dental fillings and it could be our brain's memory bank literally playing back something we have heard in the past.
If you or anyone else ever comes up with some sort of tangible relevant reason why this would occur in our lives I would love to hear it.
I have many what some would call “psychic” occurences in my life where I have known about things to come etc. and I have also had encounters with what I believe are angels.

Re: My brain is picking up a radio signal

Karin Maree said Aug 8, 2009, 11:29 PM:

 

We all seem to vibrate at different frequencies, a bit like tuning forks creating different notes.
The people I have met that can also do this 'pick up radio signals', seem to have a certain frequency that also allows them to connect with spirits. Your ability to connect with angels is a good example of what I am talking about. I also have connected with angels and spirits. Seen them, spoken with them etc.
For me the things I hear are not limited to radio sounding type messages. I have heard many other things over the years as well.
So my theory is that this is related to and linked with an ability to 'tune in' to spirit. I can't prove it of course, because it is difficult to prove anything conclusively in this area.

It is nice to meet you, I Am So Happy, in this space of very special people, whose unique experiences of life are celebrated and supported here.  I hope you will extend your friendship to me, if that works for you.  I would extend the offer my self but I am blocked from your profile home space and so, it must come from you; or we will simply remain acquainted through this space - and certainly not to worry, it is all good, however it may be.

If I have experienced such, it has not been in such obvious ways.  My experiences that border on this topic are mostly “interpretive”, ie I have interpreted something “external”, as being “internally” relevant to me, in a way that may not be the same kind of experience as another person, exposed to the same external stimuli. 

I do believe that our “modern” experience of humanity includes our being bombarded by an unprecedented number of waves of sound and images that can be converted to have “meaning” through a variety of constructed devices and so, I am able to easily believe that some persons have the capability, perhaps it is an emergent evolution of human talent, of utilizing some of that potential “mental” ability previously un-used, to be a converting device as well.  To receive, interpret and understand in a language that is familiar, some of these waves that are always there, always traveling through our ethers.  Most likely, an early experience is somewhat random and limited to a frequency that is easily apprehended.

Anyway, I am so happy my dear open-hearted friend, Karin Maree, has been so welcoming of you here and I am happy you have shared your experience with others, who have find themselves called to this group at one time or another.  The experience seems more common to me, than it may appear, more common than some other experiences are and therefore, I suspect you who experience it this way, are simply the leading edge of an emerging human capability.

Hello nbeane 1220!
No, I don't have a reason, but I know the same thing has been going on in my home since the first time I heard voices (which I thought were ill-doers) outside my window. I got my mom and dad out of bed, telling them I thought vandals or burglars were there. Being bullheaded as I am, I ran outside with a flashlight and weapon, ready to scare off whoever it was. However, when I rounded the house to my room, I heard nothing other than crickets and frogs. I went inside baffled, but heard the voices as soon as I got back in bed. I repeated my actions as before. Same results. My mom kept saying, “There's no one out there! Go back to bed!” I thought she just didn't want to deal with it.
As weeks and months passed, the voices came more often (though always at night). Then I began hearing music. I came up with every plausible explanation I could think of. I also continued waking my mother, asking her to come to my room to hear these things. She earnestly began trying to listen once she started seeing me cry, refusing to sleep in my own room, and carrying weapons everywhere I went. I was always on guard. Then I began my “experiments”. I noticed weather affected the noises; then turning items in my room either “off” or “on”, recording what I found. I also used a mini-cassette player to record some of the music. I could hear the recording fine, though my parents still could not! But then a strange thing happened. My next door neighbor, a lady in her late 80's, came to me outside one day, asking if I was hearing anything strange at nights. I was so relieved! Somebody else was hearing what I was. I didn't have an answer, wasn't positive vandals weren't part of this, and didn't want to scare her. I answered truthfully, replying, “Yeah, I do, but I think it's just dry flies (circadas, sp?) and tree frogs.” She seemed happy with that answer, even telling me later that she had researched circadas on-line, and felt this was the answer. My mother did hear the music twice. One night our central AC unit was singing! I kept hearing “Silent Night” coming from it loudly when I stepped out for a smoke. It was about 9:00 PM, sometime in July. I couldn't believe it! I ran in, and told mom to come quickly. She actually heard it. However, with time, she convinced herself that it had to be something else. My parents are in their mid-70's, and things like this just don't happen to them. My father has never heard anything out of the ordinary. It's a weird thing.
I've heard of “Fear Cages” which are actually rooms with too many electrical items plugged in, loaded extension cords, and/or wires (such as speaker wires) exposed. What happens is that an individual comes into the room (especially someone who is sensative) and the hairs on the back of the neck or arms will stand up. It also gives a person the sensation that somebody or something is in the room with them (thus, the name Fear Cage).
Anyhow, to make a long answer end, I don't know. I just know some people do hear things and others don't. I wish I could help you.

I don't have any new insights into this matter at the time. But I was glad that Lori found a place to share her experiences and find out she is not the only one and is not crazy !!

wow, i didnt know other people also experienced this too? I found this thread while searching for something that happened to me while i was taking a nap a few hours ago. I was going in and out of sleep, and i had one of thoes dreams when you are half awake and half asleep, and you cant move (its called “REM paralysis”). Being that this happens to me often I expected the usual high pitched noise i hear whenever this happens, but instead i heard a man talking? He sounded scared and was talking really fast, like what he had to say was important? I dont really remember what he was saying..but It was so freakin weird. It sorta reminded me of a radio signal? like something a walkytalky would pick up…idk if it was a dream or if i was really hearing it…and i dont know if it was actually talking to me or if it was just my brain picking up some random signal actually in the airwaves?

Josh,

I am happy we could be here for you.  This isn't a very active group but I think it is an important group.  I am really happy Samme started this thread.

One thing that came to my mind when I read your post was a lecture by James Van Pragh who is a spirit medium.  He describes those on the other side of physical life as talking very fast.  The impression I get is that it is hard to understand but one can become practiced at it, as he has done.

I have had another person describe such REM paralysis but in a slightly different way.  He hears voices too.

I don't really know but I suspect the veil that has kept the worlds - physical and non-physical - separated has grown thinner or more permeable.  As in, perhaps it is opening up to more communication possibilities.

Perhaps also, it is the prevalence of so many sound waves, bouncing around our world in these modern times. 

Life is a wondrous mystery.  Welcome to our little interesting group.

Deb

Hi, My name is Marla, and I joined this group yesterday after, like so many others, out of desperation, I googled …voices..radios in my head..I've heard voices and radios for as long as I can remember,,but unlike lots of you, it can drive me to distraction..I find myself opening the door, looking outside at night, even though I KNOW there's nobody there.I've read the different letters here, and give weight to a combination of the theories..I DO believe the veil is getting thinner, as well as electrical things plugged in drawing a lot of this stuff.I try to keep as much stuff unplugged unless I'm using it, out of self-defense.I try to laugh with my friends who don't hear this, and think I'm a little “touched” when my vacuum cleaner talks to me::))BUT, any suggestions on how to tune it out would be greatly appreciated..

Re: My brain is picking up a radio signal

debyemm said Nov 24, 2009, 8:28 AM:

 

Marla,

How nice to know that googling makes possible our support for those seeking it.

I do not doubt that for many, the experience is distracting and unwelcome.  We are so very bombarded in our modern society; and that has never been true before but ever have there been those who are “sensitive” to messages.  Put the two together and you have questions and experiences such as are raised in this thread.

Certainly, turning things off can help and getting as far away from civilization as possible, and into as wild a space as possible, can help a lot, too.

I would also suggest perhaps intentional choices of what to listen to and using some sort of head set to funnel that directly into your mind.  Pay attention to the way any music on such “feels” to you - is it soothing, relaxing, does it gently lead your mind into happy places?  In such a situation, the actual lyrics are critical and you should take care to know exactly what is said and how you personally respond to that.

I highly recommend Kelly Howell's - The Secret, Universal Mind Meditation (and choose the original version over Part II, you could try part two at a later time, if you like it but I did not feel it supersedes the original in content).  This is a cd meant to be listened to through headphones.  It is also intended to be listened to while falling asleep for 6 weeks.  However, I have also found listening to it consciously, while awake (while hiking or driving) to be a pleasant experience and it allows me to absorb the affirmations intentionally, as well. 

A Word of Caution - If you are hyponotized easily or fall asleep easily on suggestion, do not listen to it while driving.

Holding space in my heart that you hear only what is desirable and useful to you.

Peace & Blessings,
Welcome to our Group -

Isn't it great that people are finding their way here. Welcome Josh and Marla.
I have a friend who experiences this, and like you Marla, is almost driven mad by 'the voices'.
I'm fortunate that the voices are quiet and I can sort of tune in and out at will these days. Although it had never occurred to me to consider just how I do it. I suppose the first thing is I no longer 'fight' with things that happen to me, or around me. I've become very matter of fact about it all, and accept fully that these things are real. I no longer strain to hear what is being said either. I bring my attention to physical things and touch them, smell them etc. For example when I am trying to sleep I feel my face on the pillow, feel it's softness and the texture of the fabric. I have a lavender rose geranium essential oil blend I use at night, it seems to be calming.
The best way I can describe how I shift my attention is…..it is almost like a sideways slide. Now I am going to look over here. Like a conscious choice to turn and look in another direction.

I also think Deb's idea is a really good one and worth trying. Meditation and music are soothing and may help by distracting from the unwanted sound.
 
I'll give a bit more thought as to what I do and see if I can articulate it a bit better, in the hope that it might be of assistance.
Blessings

Holly Cow!
I am 61 years old and have a 30 year old daughter. When she was an adolescent, she used to tell me all the time that she couldn't sleep because of picking up on radio waves. I just chalked it up to an overactive imagination. Well, today, I was attempting to nap, with ear plugs a face mask and even a pillow over my head and I woke myself up several times getting very angry at my husband for having the TV blaring when I was trying to sleep. He is hard of hearing, wears hearing aids and so I bought him a wireless earphone set to listen to the television when I didn't want to hear it. So, there I am in the bedroom and I am exhausted and exasperated, so I take out my ear plugs and it's QUIET!. I must have been dreaming, I tell myself, so I put them back in and put the pillow over my head again and I hear it again… It's a low, muffled transmission but a definite speech pattern. I take out the ear plugs again and am positive it must be coming through the wall from the neighbor's apartment but I hear NOTHING. YES, one more time, I plug up my ears and the signal is faint but clearly NOT my imagination. So, I ran to my computer and searched for radio waves in my head and found this forum! I don't believe in mystical, magical or superstitious stuff like spirits but I do believe in ENERGY and that we are made of energy and that the plasma of the universe is one gigantic electro-magnetic field. I will research this event as something not yet understood and find a scientific explanation. Thanks for the validation and confirmation that I'm not losing my mind!

Here's what I've found so far:

There are probably other parallel universes in our living room
    “There are vibrations of different universes right here, right now. We’re just not in tune with them. There are probably other parallel universes in our living room—this is modern physics. This is the modern interpretation of quantum theory, that many worlds represents reality.”
~ Dr. Michio Kaku, Theoretical Physicist, Professor and Bestselling Author
_________

…There are an infinite number of parallel realities coexisting with us in the same room
    “There are hundreds of different radio waves being broadcast all around you from distant stations. At any given instant, your office or car or living room is full of these radio waves. However if you turn on a radio, you can listen to only one frequency at a time; these other frequencies are not in phase with each other. Each station has a different frequency, a different energy. As a result, your radio can only be turned to one broadcast at a time. Likewise, in our universe we are *tuned into the frequency that corresponds to physical reality. But there are an infinite number of parallel realities coexisting with us in the same room, although we cannot tune into them.”
~ Professor Steven Weinberg, Nobel Prize in Physics (1979)

Neerja,

Welcome. 

Thanks for adding insight and research to this question that seems to be affecting people.  I do believe the proliferation of sound waves is part of the explanation and I can readily “get” the idea that we tune in to what aligns best energetically, as the receiver on a radio does as well. 

I believe it is a natural aspect of being for some people, just as any other aspect that is not shared by 100% of all people (we ALL eat, sleep, eliminate, etc but we can't all sing well or create beautiful art - though we can all sing or make art of some kind, and I suppose, properly “tuned” we could all pick up stray sound waves).

What to do about it ?, is an entirely different question.

Welcome to the group.  We're glad to have you among us.

I also have had problems in the past hearing the radio.  I lived next to the interstate, so there was always white noise in the background.  It would normally happen right before I went to sleep.  I would get up and press my ear against the wall to see if it was the neighbor's radio and I would hear nothing.  Sometimes it would be a song I knew and sometimes I wouldn't be able to place it.  I also suffer from “exploding head syndrome”.  That is a phenomenon that also happens at bedtime when I'm just about asleep, I hear a very loud explosion which jerks me awake.  That is linked to my stress levels.  I wonder if the two are connected somehow.  Does anyone else hear “explosions” when they are going to sleep?  Or have that horrible feeling of falling and then jerking awake?

Welcome erinsuzy,

Thank you for trusting us enough to post about your experience here in this group.

I am coming more and more to believe that this phenomena of hearing radio signals may be linked to the huge number of radio and other sound waves circulating in our atmosphere.  I would suspect that city dwellers would experience it more often than someone like me who lives in the blessed relief of the empty atmosphere of wilderness.

On the sound of an explosion, my heart feels that this may be an important aspect of some past life and that it is seeking your attention, so that you may free yourself of the trauma of its vibration.  To experience an explosion must be a very shattering experience.  Sadly, it is the lot of some human incarnations to have this experience.

Much love and compassion for you; and thanks, for being willing to risk your vulnerability here -
Deb

I have been doing my own “research” on this because I find that the same thing is happening to me.  Though, not a radio.  When I'm doing something mundane, usually at home, and it's quiet, I tend to “pick up” random conversations.  Occasionally an argument.  But it's completely unrelated to what i'm doing, or what has transpired throughout my day.  Sometimes (and this is gonna sound funny) “they” use certain words/vocabulary that I find I dont know the meaning of.  I consider myself a fairly articulate person, but I dont know every word in the dictionary…yet it comes up in “conversation” in my head. 
Honestly, i was beginning to wonder if I was developing some sort of mental disorder, but I am so relieved to hear this isn't just happening to me.  In all other respects, I'm pretty sane, lol.  I do suffer from depression, although I haven't found any connection between the conversations and my depression (these occurrences don't overlap-if that makes sense).  I was also diagnosed with anxiety and ADD. 
Do any of you suffer from depression, ADD or anxiety? I wonder if there's some correlation between the diagnosis and these occurrences. Your thoughts?

D-E-E-E,

I am happy we could be here for you and that you are willing to share your experiences here with us.

It is a strange and mysterious and wonderful and unknowable universe and life we find ourselves living in.

Perhaps, someday, this phenomena will be really understood.

In the meantime, I think it is nice to know that “normal”, whatever that is, people are having the same but slightly varying experiences all over the place.

Welcome,
Deb

D-E-E-E-
I was diagnosed with anxiety and ADHD years ago, but I don't see any relationship between the occasaional times I have picked on radio signals and those diagnoses. I have only heard the radio signals about five times now and they have stopped. As far as hearing conversations, that has occurred one time in my life and has not happened since. I don't think that my experiences are related to any mental disorder. I don't consider myself mentally unstable in anyway. My anxiety gets the better of me. I found a WONDERFUL free support group for anxious called:
“Recovery Inc.” that might be helpful to you. Look it up on google, they have meetings all over U.S.

I just read your story and I was in disbelief that other people have experienced this as well.  If it weren't for my expereince I wouldn't have found this group I haven't told anyone of this experience and I'm confused by it.

Well heres my story
A few days ago I was sitting on my friends bed. He was fixing the television set and the a muted static filled the screen. As he was trying to fix it, I had this strange feeling in my hear. It felt like when your ears pop when you get to a higher elevation, but it felt more open. Haha, kind of like there was a hole on the right side of my head. But I felt this static radio signal that had filled my head. It was open and loud. It felt like I was on the phone with someone, but I was sitting there thinking, “What just happened?”
It lasted for a good five seconds, and It felt like I could hear the next room with the washer machine going very clearly as if I was right next to it.
