Can't sleep because there's too much music in my head?!
Question: Can't sleep because there's too much music in my head!?
For the past few weeks, I've constantly had songs stuck in my head, whether it's on accident or on purpose!. I do this because I just like having a constant soundtrack in my mind to fit my mood!. It soothes me, it relaxes me, especially because I feel stress a lot!.
But at night, it gets really bad!. When I'm just laying there, my brain runs wild, and I get the loudest, most upbeat songs absolutely stuck in my head!. Sometimes I'll listen to or even just think of a soothing song, mostly ones by Enya!. But they'll just be overpowered by the loud ones!.
Once, I woke up in the middle of the night about four or five times for a few seconds, and when I did the songs came back to my head, even for a few seconds! Sometimes in my dreams I'll be singing a song, or listening to one I like!.
I love music so much, and it's obviously a huge part of my life!.!.!.but I feel like it's taking over!. And I need a lot of sleep!. I'm tired enough to just about drop dead at night, but my mind stops me!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
I would stop listening to any music for about a week and see if it quietens!. Especially hard rock!. Some of the lyrics are not positive to listen to and can up set your subconsciousness!. Take care of your mind, you can not be careless with it!. If the music continues I would seek professional help!. Don't put it off, don't want to scare you but it could be a sign of hearing voices disorder!.

i had that same problem a few weeks ago, along with being way too stressed to fall asleep!. although i would get these really sad songs stuck in my head that reminded me of people that are no longer in my life and that i miss and stuff like that!. so what i did was get an account on pandora, you know the free radio site where you customize your stations to whatever music you like, and on there they give you some preset kinds of radio with different genres and all that!. they have one called 'Spa Radio' and its nice soothing, calming music, new age stuff!. so every night i put my laptop by the side of my bed and play that station on pandora!. ever since i started i just can't fall asleep without it! its so perfect though, its really relaxing and just takes all the stress away and everything!. give it a try!Www@Answer-Health@Com
