If you hear voices in my head, maybe it's time to reduce the consumption of caffeine. An Australian study recently showed the relationship between excessive coffee consumption, stress, and auditory hallucinations.
As quoted in MSNBC.com, Saturday (11 / 6), the volunteers listened to the song playing through headphones computer for three minutes. Every time they hear the song, they were told to count with the counter. Then the song stopped.
It found that the volunteers who said it was stress, and that too much coffee, are more likely to imagine what they hear in the head even though the song had stopped.
"We believe that high stress and that drinking too much caffeine, it makes people more depressed so as to make them more likely to overreact to the environment, such as hearing things that do not exist,"explained Simon Crowe, researchers and neuroscientists from La Trobe University in Australia, which is located in Bundoora, Victoria. This report is published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences edition last April.
