Does anyone have songs that keep repeating in their head? I've always had them, I guess, but they used to go away. But now I don't have control over them, and there's just always some song playing. Part of a song will keep repeating and I can change the song, but then that song keeps repeating. I wake up with a song that will come out of nowhere and just not go away. Music has become a trigger for me....lots of memories associated with songs, and remembering them causes me emotional pain. I've talked to my psychiatrist....about whether this is psychotic. He's not sure. Just wondering if I'm alone in this....

no you’re not alone. I also have repeating songs in my head. Sometimes, just pay attention to the words, especially if it’s a trigger song. Alot of times they are reflecting some negative thoughts or feelings. Then I put on some happy songs and focus on them. The songs that you wake up with can be connected to subconscious thoughts and emotions. I hope it at least helps that you’re not alone.
This happens to me too. For the longest time earlier this year, the song on repeat in my head was Lily Allen's cover of Mr. Blue Sky 😵💫
Hello. I can so easily relate to this. Never really thought the constant "radio" that plays in my brain is actually kinda common for many folks. It's very often almost constant. I'm a music lover through and through, but geez! How are you supposed to think any other rational thoughts when your brain is loudly singing the same two lines of Strangle Hold or the theme song from the freakin Mickey Mouse show over and over and over and over?? 🙃
