Music and anxiety and depression.

I have both and struggle when I'm alone particularly with my anxiety. I find that I can't concentrate on hobbies or browsing the internet if the room is silent. So I get myself some music on because I can get lost in it whilst I do other things. Sometimes I'll sing and dance too. I also find it interesting how music can fit our mood. If we want to be happy we might put on something lively. If we are sad and need a good cry then a song with meaningful lyrics might hit the spot or even something soothing to calm down. Music is truly amazing!!

And at times music doesn’t work at all.

@Fertilization I found that there’s no one distraction for easing anxiety. It’s a process of developing coping strategies that fit the situation where it hits you

@JohnnyNoir I couldn’t put it better myself.
