PENS & POSITIVITY
Music is Medicine for My Mental Health.
Music.
The word alone can ignite such excitement into me it’s unreal.
When I’m happy, sad, down, relaxing or falling asleep music is there for me.
It’s the one thing in my life that I know for certain can help me through the darkest of days.
Even though my taste varies during the day it’s still always blaring into my ears, and soul through my skull candy headphones.
For when I wake up and it’s sunny I blast Vybz Kartel, to when I’m falling asleep I’ll be soothed by James Bay, and in-between those moments it has to be Daughtry.
You see each of these artists and their songs double as my voice when I feel I just have no words.
Music has helped me and my journey of Mental Health an awful lot.
For some days I can barely find the energy to open the curtains and that is when my sad songs are played.
As soon as the music starts to play in my ear I am filled with such an inspiration, for each song to me has a deep meaning, it’s something I can relate to.
