Hello, for the last month and now I am suffering from musical ear. I hear catchy and random songs in my head. It stops when I am talking, writing or watching, but starts when I wake up, go for a smoke or being alone with my thoughts. Have you experienced this? Did it go away? We’re your meds upped for that?
I’ve had music a lot, it never really bothered me. I can say if it’s bothering you to maybe let your pdoc know and see what they suggest, maybe an increase in meds is warranted.

I didn’t listen to music for years, because hear voices in it. I used to hear conversations in my head.
Now I started listening to music, the conversations have been replaced with music.
Kinda like an earworm. Glad the conversations have stopped.
I’m worried that my pdoc will force me to increase the dosage. I’m already on 116mg Invega and feeling like a zombie
I never cared about hearing music. It didn’t bother me. I still heard music on my meds for three years or so. Now I don’t hear anything.
If you’re already as sedated as is comfortable for you but still need more symptom reduction, adding a second, less sedating med is sometimes a good option. Otherwise it may be time to try a different med altogether.
How did it stop? Did it stop just out of nowhere or you were battling it? Or you upped/changed meds?
It went away shortly after a med change. I dropped antidepressants and went with just Geodon.
It might be trintellix causing me this, escitalopram was good for me. Did your antidepressant caused it or another AP?
I’m hearing music right now, have been for a good hour
I had that many years ago. I heard eerie, synthesizer organ music nonstop for three straight months. My pdocs said it was from my sza. Although it could have been from the one dose of sleeping pill I took.
It happens to me and my kids. I don’t really think its neccesarily sz related. Other people say that they get stupid songs stuck in their heads as well.
If you are able to play the song on a musical instrument it usually goes away,
@unbe When i was on my last episode i was hearing conversations aswell with the music i was hearing, to the point that my Pdoc told me to stop listening to music for some weeks.
It felt kinda weird because the profession i wanted to study was music, and for that you need to listen non stop to it.

For me it’s the first song I hear in the morning usually in the car. I’ve found to get rid of replay use classical music.
