The walls of my apartment are very thin. At least, I hope they are. If not, then I truly am losing my already tenuous grasp on my sanity.
I keep hearing a low, bass-like rumbling coming through the walls in my bedroom. It sounds like someone in the neighboring apartments is watching an action movie with the sound turned up or listening music with a lot of bass. it is driving me nuts. This started a few months ago when I started hearing things and went out to investigate. I came upon my neighbor's place where she was indeed watching an action movie with the sound turned WAY up. At 2 in the morning. So, I politely asked her to turn it down. She obliged. No incident.
Then, a few weeks ago, the thumping started again. Chris was over, but he didn't hear anything. So we both went outside to investigate. Nothing. No obnoxious neighbor, nothing. But, when I got back inside my apartment, I was still hearing it. He wasn't. I didn't get any sleep that night. This is when I started to think I might be going crazy.
In my DSM class this past quarter, we learned how to properly administer a diagnostic interview. To determine psychotic disorders like schizophrenia we asked the question, "Do you ever hear or see things other people don't see or hear?" I used to be able to answer "No" to this question. Not anymore.
