Songs stuck in your head
Do you ever get a song stuck in your head or part of a song on repeat. Even if you don’t like the song. Then you wonder what this means about you bc you have this song in your head?

Yep! Try to listen to the song until it doesn't make you feel upset anymore.

Or just try to be cool with the song. "I might have this in my head all day and that's fine" OCD is kind of like a little sibling and it will keep pestering you until you stop giving it the attention it craves

Absolutely. Slightlt long comment here. So my intrusions recently have been around two shows. Up until recently, I was sure that while I enjoyed both shows A and B, I liked A better. That's how it was and I went about my life. However, since Nov last year, I had intrusive thoughts about whether I like show B better. It was a made rush of comparisons between the two because I know I like show A more but the brain is the brain right? So I started avoiding show B. Then I started doing exposures where I purposely listened to songs from show B and sat with the anxiety and discomfort. And those songs literally played in my head all day. It wont stop at all. It is exhausting.
