I am getting repetitive thoughts in my mind, I want to control them but it goes on repeating like a tape recorder. It is happening since tonight. A phrase of a particular song is continuously repeating in my mind uncontrollably such that it is also disturbing in reading books although I did not even listen this song recently. I am very scared? Is it psychosis?
