I love jazz!!

Also Bethel and Zach Williams
I listen to Christian music. Honestly it helps me knowing that there is someone up above ❤️ There are so many great Christian bands! My favorites are Carrollton, We the Kingdom, Skillet
when I’m depressed I always want to listen to Hurt, Evans Blue, and RED. It makes me sad but in other ways than the depression. Then use other music to heal my way back up
NF is my go to 100% all of his songs help out a lot because it feels like someone knows how it feels what I’m feeling.
Leona Lewis helps me. And I’ve got the power from snap helps me to remember that I do got power over myself
I just listen to every song that pops into my head and make an inspired playlist out of it. It usually turns out pretty good.
Whenever I feel depressed I play a lot of songs from Shinedown, Papa Roach, and Matchbox Twenty :') when I'm angry I play Falling in Reverse 😂
“Harmony Hall” by Vampire Weekend is my latest go to, with the refrain “I dont wanna live like this, but I dont wanna die” just really resonates with me when I’m depressed. If I’m “angry-depressed”, then its “I Said Hi” by Amy Shark, as she complains about others not understanding how much she is struggling.
I listen to Christian rock

@Cancer are you a matt maeson fan? his music is fantastic!
I usually listen to heavy metal or something loud and fast and get up and dance, get the wiggles out ya know?
very fun and relatable. Her song Lovely is beautiful.

I listen to Sol Rising!
NF, Twenty One Pilots (older stuff), Cavetown, and Ethan Jewel are all great options!
I really love “folk” music, my favorite band being “The Civil Wars”. It’s not for everybody - my husband says it’s depressing - but it relaxes me and makes me feel better when I’m upset.

Any song by NF💙💙💙💙
@CJ17 🤟
Any 60s-70s rock is my therapy ha
Casting Crowns is my go to group. They are awesome! Especially their song "Be Held"
@Dad.of.Many I like them too.
Does music help? I haven't listened to any in like 20-25 years. Obviously I'll hear it in stores and occasionally from other people's cars. I just usually choose silence over noise. When do you have time to listen to music? Rather, how often?
@jjharkan in the background doing dishes, skincare routine, driving, or trying to wake up
Any Cristabelle Braden songs she is amazing
I recently came across this amazing group called Team Fearless and another group called Fearless Soul... Any songs by them keep me going and give me hope.
Yes music is great therapy but I also color and cohae
A reason to fight by Disturbed
I like Lose Yourself by Eminem. Makes me want to take over the world.
Last hope - paramore
So when I feel down I try not to listen to music that forces me to cheer up, y'know? On the contrary, i listen to artists i feel are going through or have gone through the pain i feel. Idk if it's a good habit, considering I seem to feel some comfort in the pain. The music might seem really depressing to most
@Metal I do this too. People tend not to understand this one. Who's your favorite?
Young Blood by Noah Kahan, Borrowed Time by A Fine Frenzy (the whole one cell in the sea album honestly)
@CaitiBee never heard of either of them but I'll look into it, thank you.
I have so many awesome songs I could send you I'm a music freak 😂
@upsettispaghetti I'd love that! Thank you!
Broken by Lifehouse
@upsettispaghetti Anything by Lifehouse!
@upsettispaghetti Someday by Nickelback
Anybody like Billie Eilish? I love her, and I think she's real and doesn't hide from the truth.

@AltheaGraceLove8016 never listened to her, heard of her for sure though.
@AltheaGraceLove8016 also I completely agree, she's very real and honest, and her shows are incredible 😍
@AltheaGraceLove8016 I absolutely adore her ❤️
try the 1975, their older stuff mostly. it always makes me feel better ❤️ let me know if you like it ❤️
@mamabear07 you're the second person to recommend this. Thank you! I'll be sure to comment my satisfaction lol 😂
@TiffLiLiLu really? that's awesome! they are amazing for bringing real feelings out. and when I'm overly depressed and u listen to one of their songs about depressed or sad stuff, for whatever reason it helps tremendously. I truly belive that music can really heal you. I could recommend a certain song depending on how you are feeling if you'd like. just let me know ❤️
What do you need? Encouraging? Raw feelings? I have a playlist specifically for this lol

@picklepuddles I usually listen to stuff about depression when I'm depressed. Makes me feel less alone but happy music also helps too really just any of your favorites. ☺️
@TiffLiLiLu off the top of my head, one of my favorites for when I'm in a desperate/hopeless place is "s.o.s." by We the Kingdom. They're also my favorite Christian band right now. When I get a chance, I will see what else I can come up with 😊
@TiffLiLiLu Numb Little Bug by Em Beihold is good too
@picklepuddles I need that playlist 😂
One song I always listen to when depressed is get up by shinedown
@mem0000 Listening to it right now and love it already
@AltheaGraceLove8016 daylight by them is really great too.
@mem0000 I do know a few Shinedown songs but never heard of that I don't think. Thank you.
NF is really intense. Huntr is validating. I make whole playlists for myself to help too 😊
@CJ17 nice!
@sabbymer NF is one of my favorite people. Really deep and relatable. Never heard of huntr but I'll definitely look into it. Thank you, I appreciate it.
@TiffLiLiLu no problem! I got more if you need :3
Blessed & free by Kane brown and H.E.R
@BlueRaven91 I've no clue who H.E.R. is but I'll look into it, thank you.
@BlueRaven91 I love H.E.R - I believe her voice and her style is a true blessing to the world.
Head Above Water by Avril Lavigne is good. Wait for it, it's in the Hamilton Musical, the meaning behind the song is beautiful.
@AltheaGraceLove8016 honestly love that song. I just love musicals really lol
