Musical Hallucination (Mh)

[scooping]

Anyone with any direct or indirect experience of this condition?

[zoe76]

do you mean like music playing in your head and you cant get rid of it? if so, yes, it happens to me

[Butterbun]

Happens sometimes. You hear a tune and keep humming it all day.

Thanks guys. Have had Abide with Me for four days and it's getting tedious in the extreme.

[Mamyalynne]

Well it is a very abiding tune.

MH is more than what has been suggested by Zoe and Butterbun. It's a form of tinnitus:

Thanks Buenchico. Slightly concerned.

strange, abide with me is one of the songs i get regularly, as well as amazing grace and for some reason an old sparks or squeeze song about a woman shuffling round in her dirty home with fingerless mittens on ~ sorry no idea of the name of the song

[zoe76]

thank you for the link noodlearms, stuck song syndrome describes it perfectly what you have sounds really scary!

Sing God Save The Queen - alleged to remove all music earworms.

[douglas9401]

That works for me, Stephen, when Mr Bruce plays some ropey old nugget of a morning.

[Mags22]

God save the Queen is dire compared to other national anthems so yes,it might remove ear worms, my ear worm is 'the sun has got his hat on' if it's a nice day!

Thanks again all.
