In reply to I Can't Get Songs Out of My Head!!!!! Psychosis???, posted by Stryker88 on January 27, 2004, at 11:56:29
Over the years here at babble, there have been a number of people reporting the problem of having songs play in their heads over and over. It seems like the discussion pointed toward OCD rather than psychosis. See the following archived posts:
1. In this post, Lemon quotes an article by a Dr. Harold Pupko, on OCD and hearing music, from the OCD Newsletter:

2. At the end of this next post, posted by Blue Cheer 1, is an excerpt from Judith Rappaport's book on OCD, "The Boy Who Couldn't Stop Washing: The Experience & Treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder" that talks about unwanted repetetive music playing in the head as a symptom of OCD.
