> I have intrusive music in my head. I will emphasize that I don't, and never have, "heard voices". I hear it all the time, sometimes even when I'm sleeping. It does not consist of complete songs, but rather random snippets that play over and over again, until something (completely unidentifiable) will suddenly "change the record". When I'm under stress, naturally the music gets louder. It will pervade anything I try to use to distract my mind. Sometimes, I will have two songs going simultaneously.
