Tell me, does listening to all of this make you feel better or worse?
Some of the lyrics just speak to me you know. I don’t know it gives me slight comfort. But sometimes when I am just depressed I play it in the background as I shut everything out.
Hmm.. I find that sad songs encourage sad feelings..
When I’m truly at a low, I can’t really stand music. I think it’s because it cannot encourage any more of that emotion, I don’t really know though. Everything doesn’t seem enough.. I guess like trying to cook with a toothpick? lol.
I’d say that you need to be cautious if you start feeling more emotional when listening to songs.. sure, it’s good to purge a few tears every now and then – but you don’t want to make yourself feel worse.
I understand, but there no need to concern yourself for me : ) When I listen to this music it relaxes me and doesn’t make me sad. It doesn’t affect my emotions. In fact it chills them out. I don’t know if I’m making sense but yeah. Thank you for your concern though.
