Hello ladies and gentlemen. Here is another installment on music and depression. I might be going over some stuff I have talked about before so please bare with me here. For me music is something that can be a real help in so many ways when I am feeling depressed. I am not the only one who when they are feeling down or depressed turns to music, but not just regular “happy” music, but music that some might think is depressing and may make others feel down. To us this kind of music helps us through these blue or dark periods in our lives. I know it sounds strange to those who don’t understand, but that is how it is for me and others who are like this. When we listen to sad music we feel better and that is all I can say. for me it helps me get out feelings that are bottled up inside of me and to be able to release other things that have been going around in my head. Not all the songs we listen to are sad or depressing, but that is what makes us feel better and to us that is all that matters in the end. If we didn’t have music like this for us to turn to it would be very not good for us, some so more than others I’m guessing. We all, and I mean the human race, use some kind of way to help us connect with our feelings in some way or another; for some it is writing, some singing while others paint or create in other ways. For myself and others we listen to music that is sadder or darker that what some people would think is good for a person with depression or something like that. In the end whatever works for you I say do it and enjoy yourself doing it. We only live one life at a time so make the most of it.
