Music is a beautiful thing. There are many different genres of music in the world. It can hype you up, make you sad, angry, and so much more. Personally, music makes me feel calm. I get anxiety all of the time. I was diagnosed with severe anxiety and nothing was ever able to calm me down. I tried everything. The only thing in the world that can calm me down during an anxiety attack is blasting music in my ears or during a car ride. Music means so much to me. I know many people have mental issues or have been diagnosed with anxiety too. I suggest the people going through things to just take a minute to just blast some rock music and kick back. I never believed it until I tried it. Rock music or just some fast music makes me feel pumped up and hyped. I struggled for years and nothing worked enough. Music has a very important place in my heart. Certain artists such as The Neighbourhood, The Weeknd, Daughter, Neck Deep, and so many other artists play an important role in my life because when I was going through dark times I just turned on my speaker and listened to these artists. They have helped me through so much. I couldn’t imagine life without it. I wish I would’ve tried this before so I didn’t have to struggle so hard. Music still doesn’t end my anxiety but it makes me feel so much better than I did. I suggest everyone try it during hard times. It can really impact you and help you for the better.
