Can You be Allergic to Music?
Manage episode 433742304 series 2787697
Most of us find joy in melodies and rhythms. Catchy tunes we hear at the coffee shop, in the mall, or even muzak in the elevator can get stuck in our heads. That's what happened to Anya. Except, music did not bring her joy; it felt like torture. When songs got stuck in Anya's head, they would not stop; the music was loud, pounding incessantly, and it left her bewildered, exhausted, and desperate for a cure. Her condition stumped doctors for years. Then, hope. Via a new kind of brain surgery, pioneered, in part, here in Canada.
Content warning: Today’s episode talks about suicide ideation. If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide, call or text 9-8-8. Support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Please take care as you listen.
Host: Jesse Brown
Credits: Avis Favaro (Reporter), Kevin O'Keefe (Reporter), Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), max collins (Production Manager), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)
