As a kid I did hear music. I could think of a song and then actually hear it. Now that I’m an adult I rarely ever get audio hallucinations anymore but sometimes I get what sounds like very faint videogame music like from a game boy or something.
I get musical compositions that get created in my head without me doing anything. Pianos trumpets guitars whatever.
Then at times my head is a radio that I can change the song instantly whenever I want.
Then there is just the typical getting a song stuck in your head which is typical even for normies.

I’m OK concerning a situation I don’t know how to handle.
I’ll look them up! thank you!
Do you want to talk about your situation?
I get voices & music. Especially 80s music lol.
I get a lot of songs in my head but they don’t bother me like scary hallucinations. Original songs like you. I was making like 8 songs a day at one time on garageband because I just had all these ideas I had to get out. They’re strange songs though, I don’t know if others like them much. But it was quite a lot of fun. They comforted me those songs even when they were in my head only.

when I was younger, I liked popular music a lot. but then something really bad happened, and I did not like popular music as much because I felt that it was giving messages.
yet popular music kept playing in my head, even when I didn’t want it to. so I stopped listening to popular music and I started listening to instrumental music. my plan was to listen to instrumental music to a point where my mind would recall it, rather than recall lyrical music.
To help enforce my plan, I’d hum instrumental music whenever I found myself about to whisper a lyrical song. I constantly varied my taste in instrumental music, so that I won’t get bored of it. I picked favorite instrumental songs that I play over and over again. For instance, each time I go to Keyfood, my headphones play the same instrumental song.
nowadays, I have a strong connection with instrumental music, and I’m okay with it playing in my head. I prefer it over lyrical music that gives me messages; at least for now anyways.

this happens to me too! I’ll hear music being played and it’s usually music I’m not a fan of that is mainstream/old music I haven’t heard in a while. Sometimes they can randomly play nice tunes though. I have grown to also like only instrumental more than lyrics now.
I only hear music when I’m becoming manic, or currently manic. Its always in white noise though, otherwise I don’t hear it. Used to be renaissancy music, but I’ve heard guitar solos, hard metal rock complete with singing but I can never make it out. Keeps me awake when it happens D:
I’ve heard music since I was 14, and maybe even before that. I would just lie in my bed at night, listening to the melodies only I could hear. I frequently start dancing to my songs in public, without thinking about it. I’ll hum along, sometimes. It is a real shame I have no musical talent whatsoever, because I could probably make a pretty decent living from some of the catchier songs. I call it my theme music.
Since tapering off amitriptyline, I haven’t heard the music. It’s been weeks. I feel kind of lonely without it.

Yeah I tend to slightly bob my head along to it when it happens in public. I don’t get embarrassed by that anymore
