Hey all, bit of a peculiar one and haven't found anywhere more thorough than poking the reddit hivemind and seeing what comes out.

I've an Anxiety and Depression Dx, and I've been prescribed 20 mg Propranolol. While it was prescribed for daily use, I, after conversations with my doctor, have very much used it on an episodic basis, where I can feel the anxiety spiking, for want of a better phrase.

The main reason behind this is that I have noticed, that when I take it, my perception of pitch (in the musical sense) is just... off: songs which I know off the back of my hand sound - pretty universally, pitchshifted, usually down by about a whole semitone. Whenever I've noticed this (and the "episodes" where I take my meds aren't exactly frequent), I've looked into it and have been able to find nothing apart from one, maybe... less than reliable sources

I had actually had to take my meds today, forgot that i had taken them, and was sitting listening to music, thinking that it sounded "off" before remembering I had taken them way earlier today, and it made me think I should maybe look again in to whether or not this is a known "thing"; if it's just my body being weird if it isn't a thing, or if it is, if anyone knows what the mechanism of action is. I'm not particular worried about long-term effects as it tends to sort itself out a day or so after i've last taken it, which kinda tracks from what I've round RE: its metabolisation etc.
