This is isn't just another case of paranoia

Since May 1st, I've been coming upon a couple things that I believe could almost be beneficial if the masses were to possess such knowledge. I'm trying to write it all so if I'm lucky enough to get it finished, I'll post it all on ATS, boy scouts honor. I'm constantly getting these sensations through my body and this ringing in my ears. It only gets louder if I think what was on my mind and complete that thought but if I ignore it it can last up to an hour till I think it away. It gets a lot weirder though.

Since all these things started happening, I will go outside but every time I am out there (which usually isn't long unless I'm taking out trash or getting in the car) a car will pass by but they'll go really, really slow. Sometime I can see in the windows and it'll just be a man or some woman but the other day was the weirdest incident. I walk outside and I get that ringing in my ears, I turn the direction it's coming from and I see a white minivan across the street. In the car there is an old man and old woman but they make a right turn it's like they took their peddle off the gas and passed by slowly. They were both staring dead into my eyes as they were turning. I know it may sound like nothing but so many things are happening and I really don't know what to do or think of it. Any advice?

There are more things going on than just that, but that's for another day.

The ringing in your ears is quite common and referred to as tinnitus. I actually have it. And it does sound like you're being a little over-vigilant here. The old couple were probably wondering why you were staring at them, lol.

Arthur: All my life I've had this strange feeling that there's something big and sinister going on in the world.
Slartibartfast: No, that's perfectly normal paranoia. Everyone in the universe gets that.

I can hear fine. Even better than usual. It may be tinnitus but it doesn't explain why certain thoughts come into play and last until I finish those thoughts? I may sound over vigilant but at least try and give me the benefit of the doubt seeing as you have no clue exactly what is taking play in my life. Thanks for the input though. And I wasn't staring at them first. I was walking through my yard, I get the ringing in my ears, so I look in the direction the sound was coming from to me and there they are doing somewhere around 5 mph at most and staring at me as they turn. Yeah, maybe I shouldn't of been staring but they shouldn't of been so close to the curb driving by like they were about to give me some candy or something.

Have you done something that would curry a surveilance on you? For example, when I filed for Worker's Comp many subrosa surveillances were coordinated at my residence and in my grocery store and even in some adult ED classes I was taking.

I noticed on 2 occasions that I got an alert on my computer that someone was trying to break in. I was doing a search on netting for project that I was going to sew. I looked at netting from Mylasia, China, Austrailia, big holes little holes, treated non treated. Then, in my Ebay class the man who sat right to me started asking me all about netting and what he could do with it. He talked about sewing pouches for water bottles and selling them on Ebay. I just laughed and told him he wouldn't make much money that way. He seeme confused. The the lady sitting on the other side asked my for my Ebay name so she could follow my sales. I gave her a bogus name.

"They" went around to my neighbors and told them that I was being investigated for WC fraud and now they keep asking me when I'm going back to work or if I found a job yet. The property manager knows about the surveillance and often warns me when they are around, offering to help carry my groceries for me or taking the trash cans to the road. "There watching you today" he tells me.

My WC case is going to have to go to court before the insurance company will acknowledge me, so right now I am on State Disability.

Some days the ringing in my ears is so loud! Other days, like today, nothing.

Tinnitus is not hearing loss, two different things.

Also, I have never heard of tinnitus being directional. From my experience the ringing just is, it doesn't seem to have a direction. Pretty much everyone I work with has tinnitus as well, and no one that I am aware of has ever mentioned their ringing having a direction.

But I am not a doctor.

For the OP, it sounds to me that the ringing you are having is something other than tinnitus. Otherwise I have no advice.

That doesn't sound too good, my friend. I hope it all work out okay for you!

There are things I've been finding, discussing with many other people, and certain things that I've never actually tried to realize. I will discuss in private what I have found, but I've told a few of my close friends what it is I have found and they will get ahead of me and say some violent anti-establishment things, I don't preach or speak of violence but my friends feel outraged at the government for some things and it's only getting worse and worse. So, yes, there have been some things done and spoken of that could garner some unnecessary attention but I haven't done anything that could harm anybody.

Could the older couple that drove by really slow have been the previous homeowners? I'd imagine I always look shady to other people when snooping around my old house.

Could be. While I was working as a waitress one of my coworkers asked if they could get anything for me, I was really busy. I said "Yeah, an unregistered shot gun! Loaded this time because last time, it wasn't." Someone called ATF on me, and I had to do an interview with the feds. Becareful what you say out loud. LOL!

Yeah, I really do not have a good clue what tinnitus is. I get check up's regularly and I've never heard it been used by a doctor personally say it to me so I was just going off a wikipedia article on what it was.

I really don't think I have tinnitus. Tinnitus wouldn't be pointing me to valuable knowledge and messages every step of the way.

My dad's friend used to live in our home, he moved to Oklahoma with the rest of his family a long time ago and he was the only person to own it before us.

I think you might have bi-polar. I've seen you around a few times, and you seem to have an anxious and paranoid disposition about you. Maybe I can come over sometime and talk with you? I promise I haven't been spying on you.
