It helps get my mind off of everything else for a while.

My son was a musician so music brings me close to him....

Listening to the music my dad loved connects me with his spirit.

yes, but sometimes it makes me sad to hear certain songs

Music has helped me express my thoughts/feelings about my abuse as well as helped me cope with feelings of depression and anxiety. I love finding songs that can describe how I feel when I can't find the words. I'm also very passionate about dance and use music to choreograph to cope with my emotions.

Sometimes when I feel like I can't focus, I put music on low to have some background noise...it seems when I'm working in silence I have more racing thoughts and get sidetracked a lot easier. There have however been other times when music is very distracting...I suppose it just depends what I am working on.

Music keeps me alive...however I recently had to sell my last bass guitar to pay bills...bumming...

I tend to be able to lower my stress level with music. But lately it do not seem to work as much. I want to learn new ways to manage stress.

NOTHING like driving down the highway blaring my favorite music!

I started listening to chorale music, and it helped tremendously.
