On some days when my ocd is going to be bad, I’ll wake up with some words or a song repeating in my head

I’m not actively thinking them, they just repeat by themselves. Anyway, good morning and [i]severe plaque psoriasis [/i]

I read an article which said when part of a song gets stuck in your head, the best way to get rid of it, is to sing the entire song.

Not sure if they're correct, but you can try it and see if it works for you.

@Viper thanks, it’s not the same as just having a song in your head that you can sing. I can’t stop it, or continue it, or restart it or anything like that. I can actively be thinking, talking, and doing other things, and it continues. It doesn’t have that “catchy” feeling to it. It’s not something I want to sing along with

@itsok awe :( so sorry it's that negative and can't seem to be helped 😞

Can your lovely pets distracted it?

@Viper what happened this morning isn’t horribly unpleasant, it just signifies that I’ll be having trouble with compulsions today. I’m fine!

@itsok That's good, sorry I didn't understand
