I have some indepth questions about some observations I've had in the past few years. If you don't know the answer to all, try the best that you can.

1. If I concentrate, I can hear a high frequency sound, and sometimes this sound is more audible than at other times.

2. When I look at a window I can make my eyes choose either to look through the glass, or to look at the reflection, without moving any part of my body.

3. When I close my eyes, instead of pure black, I see black with tiny red and blue spots.

4. Whenever I stare at a really dark spot at night with the rest of the room slightly visible, I can blend in the surroundings of the dark spot, and what I perceive is just a black larger black spot.

  1. best way to find out is see a doc

    you sound fine to me

    maybe even gifted:)


  2. Your eyes and your ears are NOT fine-tuned machines.  They are organic.  The sensations that you percieve are merely chemical reactions.

    The sound that you hear is quite common.  It's because your eardrums continue to vibrate after hearing noise at a certain level for long periods of time.  So, if you tend to hang out in a room with a T.V. on (or music, or people talking), your ears adjust to this.  When you go somewhere quiet, you will still hear your ears 'ringing'.

    Your eyesight is based on certain chemical reactions that happen when you percieve light.  Seeing spots in front of your eyes is kind of like turning your T.V. to a station that has nothing but 'static'.  Because you aren't seeing an image, you are instead seeing the background 'noise' in your eyes.

    As for seeing the reflection in the window....that's a very common occurance.  Many vehicles are now equipped with HUD, or 'Heads Up Display'.  A projection of the digital speedometer is seen in the lower portion of the windshield, reflected in the glass.  It's visible by virtually anyone with decent eyesight.

  3. 2. your brain is calculating the place to focus upon your desire

    3. result of translation of your brain from the stimuli of the peripheral cell in your retina.

    4. you focus on a point in the dark, iris wide enough to see the rest of the room, the points around which you are focusing will not be sharp enough because they are out of your point of maximum visibility, your mind would translate the ambiguity as the focused point.

  4. i have number 2 & 3 too!

  5. Nothing wrong...you are just actually doing simple perceptual experiments that show how what you concentrate on changes your perception.  Everyone is capable...part of intro psych course!  (college psychology prof)

  6. There probably is something wrong with you, but it isn't those four things.

  7. 1. If you have any sort of hearing damage, you are experiencing Tinnitus...otherwise look into EM interference.  (See first link)

    2.The muscles in your eyes are changing the shape of the lense in your eye (and moving the focal lenght in and out)

    3.I think the receptors in your eyes have to do with this.    (Check the second link)

    4.If there is complete dark, you can experience as sort of visual hallucination as your eyes struggle to see something.

    ...and no, you are normal!

  8. in these sences we are very much alike.

    1. this is a cindition known as Tinnitus.let your doctor know and it can be treated.

    i have this condition too and i have not gone to a doctor. if it affects your sleep and you cannot go to a doctor try letting gentle music play and focus on it instead. IT HELP.

    2. this is just your eyes ability to adjust to depth.

    nothing wrong here. another way to show this is by lining several objects up in a row leaving verying spaces between them. start by focsing on the object closest to you. the the next. you may notice how when you focus on one the otheres become blury.

    3. idk what this is but i also expierience this.

    haha

    4. same

    haha

    hope i helped
