what is this called?

#1 Post by Ritterskoop » Sat Oct 06, 2018 6:09 pm

You know when you are sitting at the stoplight, and a car comes up beside you and the bass in the stereo is so loud that you feel it in your chest? There is even a tiny bit of in-and-out just above the sternum, like you are underwater or something?

What is this shit called?

I am sure it is about adrenaline and stress and packaging all these 330 and 4pm Top 25 games in the course of ten minutes, but damn.

Pulsatile tinnitus? I googled it, not very carefully.

You're right, you weren't careful. That's tinnitus that is in sync with your pulse rate.

Learning stuff.

The area I am talking about is called the suprasternal notch or sometimes the jugular notch. It is the dip above the sternum between the collarbones.

I still don't know what to call the sensation.

Such a sound system got an employee at a prior job fired. I kid you not.

Not because of the sound system, per se. But because the violator was a repeat offender of tardiness, and he always said he was in the bathroom (or something) at his starting time. The problem was that everyone in the building know when he pulled into the parking lot because of the sound system, including his boss, and it eventually caught up with him.

Here's something else that I've experienced since I was a kid, but didn't know what it was till I looked it up: tingling in my scalp when I concentrate deeply. It's a real thing, called autonomous sensory meridian response.
