A 55-year-old man suffered for many years from the "last song" syndrome. • The songs stuck in his head for whole days and even caused him to fall asleep.

• He could no longer hear the song. Suicide (illustration)

Anthony Wayne Walters (55), a resident of Wales in the UK, has suffered for years in a very severe way, from a common and very annoying phenomenon that has reached new heights.

The reference is to the last song syndrome, as it is called in Hebrew "a troublesome song". This is a situation where a song we hear gets stuck in our head over time and does not come out of it.

The very common phenomenon, also called earworms in English, can in some cases bother its sufferers for days and even cause insomnia. 

It was also the condition of Walters, who generally suffered from additional mental problems, which caused songs stuck in his head to obsessively bother him throughout the day, plunging him into a deep and persistent depression.

This reality with which he struggled for an entire life, caused him to call his friend David Williams and tell him that he was tired of constantly hearing depressing songs that deprive him of the joy of life and that he decided to end his life.

The friend immediately called the local police who were called to Anthony's home. The policemen, who even invited an expert to talk to him, tried for a long time to persuade the man to give up the suicidal act but failed in their persuasion work and he put an end to his life. 

Dr. Anthony Ik, the doctor who treated Walters over the years, explained that "he suffered greatly from this reality that caused him to have insomnia, and in fact turned his life into an obsessive craze for one thing: the songs that kept spinning in his head."
