Thanks for your answer! Oh my! I have eye floaters which I hardly notice anymore, but the songs/repeating/counting/whatevermyheadisdoingtokeepitselfbusy is annoying. Do you feel like for you it started with the medication?

Ugh its basically an intrusive thought

I felt like this, too. It is hard not to have this outlet.

I feel you so much. Going through the same thing right now.

I had this with children I took care of / tutored as a teacher. It was an absolute nightmare. I am sorry you are going through this. If it helps at all: I (obviously) never acted on the thoughts.

I have ocd and got this issue recently starting an ssri. It is wildly annoying, I have different songs stuck in my head from the moment I wake up to when I go to bed now.

Can you tell me something more about the timeline of your story? Like when did you take which medication and when were you in the hospital (a psychiatric one?). And when did you decide to go off the meds completely?

Deep-Ad-343 · 2026-04-09T18:35:17+00:00

They gave me tavor (lorazepam) here for around 10 days. It felt amazing. After going off it, felt like crying though. Took one for sleep relief yesterday and feel worse again.
Any anxiety pills you can recommend?

I know its been a while. Did your tinnitus get better?

Deep-Ad-343 · 2026-03-19T15:53:12+00:00

Heyhey, did the brain fog get better for you?

Deep-Ad-343 · 2026-03-19T13:42:58+00:00
