> I read something about people OCD experiencing "musical OCD"... where songs play vividly in their heads. I have OCD... and I constantly have music in my head. However, this music seems somehow both in my head, but also coming from an external source. Anyone have any info as to the nature or origin of something like this? Could it be my meds (Effexor XR and Risperdal) or is it a manifestation of OCD or other psychiatric problems?I have that too! Music vividly playing in my head, particularly when I try to sleep. I read somewhere that depleted serotonin may be to blame.
I hasten to add that mine is clearly in my head rather than appearing to come from an external source.
