I do, basically every day... its the weirdest thing, and its been that way for years
The alarm goes off and suddenly I've got some random song in my head, making me sing along to it in the shower... usually its something I've heard in the last couple days, but other times its SO random
Woke up to this today, heard it three days ago at work
I heard this song once, I don't know where, woke up with it in my head one day and had a hard time trying to find out what it's called, was trying to google the lyrics I could remember but I was getting something else and finally found it one day. It was driving me nuts for a little bit

Sometimes I’ll be on the verge of passing out, and then BOOM! High energy music banging against the walls of my eardrums. It’s even worse since my hospitalization, can’t drink or smoke the herbs right now, so I can only take a gummy and that doesn’t really help as much as all 3 together do.
Last nights song (which tends to be a favorite of my brain)
Good luck getting to sleep with this playing in your head!
Dang man, if its affecting your sleep thats next level stuff
That actually sounds like a burden, with me its more like amusement... where the hell did this come from, and why?

:-) yep it can be just like that, this was the one about 2 weeks ago... why?
It’s definitely a burden. Laid down at 11 pm last night. At 2 am I was still awake because I couldn’t get the music to stop. Had to be up at 6 for work. That’s basically a nightly occurrence! Sucks! Even take a sleeping pill, and still doesn’t stop it. [Reply]

No songs.
Ha yep... you can either lay there pretending you're sleeping, or go piss and actually get back to sleep

Dude that sounds awful, my deal hits me in the morning but doesn't affect sleep at all
I mean yeah sometimes during stressful times its hard to shut down, but its never pounding music keeping me up... just general worries or whatever, sounds like you need to be talking to your docs about all this since you're already seeing them all the time [Reply]

This may not be a solution for you, but about two months ago I got an app called Breethe on my phone. I think there's a bunch of these apps out there.
Basically a bunch of different things on there to help with sleeping, stress, etc. Everything from sounds (white noise/Brown noise/etc.) to 'hypnosis' files, audio stories, and so on.
I have pretty bad insomnia and trouble staying asleep. Been having trouble with it since i was in my teens. Typically I wake up several times a night and then lay there pissed off for hours before nodding off again.
I listen mainly to the rain/campfire/breeze files; helps me get to sleep and stay asleep. I just click play and set the phone on the charger (app uses some juice), and that's it.
Since I've been using Breethe, I've been falling asleep easier, and definitely not waking up 4+ times a night anymore. Been a kind of minor miracle for me.
It's free (pretty sure they all are), maybe it'd be worth trying out. [Reply]
