Every day when I wake up, I have the goal to merely make it to the next day. Not everything I do that day is going to be a permanent life or death situation. Life is just meant to be lived, so that's what I push myself to do everyday.

It sucks now how social media has now programmed me that likes and comments is the way to rate someone's posts and words. So right now I've been scrolling up and down re-reading all the posts and questioning "why doesn't this have more likes or comments" and even going over mine I automatically ask "did I word it wrong?" Or anything that belittles my posts- my opinions

There are a ton of different techniques to help people remember things and some of those involve music. Like a catchy song made about whatever you need to remember, or like when you study and listen to music then if you hear that song again you are able to remember what you studied.

my sister yells at me every time i listen to sad music (my music) and i tell her the reason why i listen to it (anxiety, panic attacks etc) and she tells me she doesn't care. when she says that i play it louder.

It is truly hard to reach out for people or express themselves because most times it gets shot down or there's trouble with that explanation and connection. For me it's due to past events that caused me to 'learn' that my opinion, feelings or thoughts are stupid or over reactive. But with music I feel it helps me cycle through my thoughts and emotions without the fears of rejection.

Music can help a lot of people I feel like to make them feel better about something or maybe themselves or maybe help get their life together little by little at a time

music helps me escape from reality and helps with my stress, my sadness, and my dreams. Music makes me feel less alone. I remember when i listen to the sad music i remember there are a lot of more people i don't know about going through things too. Music also helps with my confidence too.

Personally music is what keeps me going, most days when I can't get out of bed, music is what gets me up. Music has helped me in a lot of ways, when I start going into sensory overload or I feel like I can't breathe or my many mental issues get bad like (TW named illnesses) my anorexia, anxiety, depression, or self harming, I use music to calm myself down or just to let it all out. No matter what mood I have music is there to help me embrace my feelings. Also music has given me a sense of self confidence. When I started singing and performing I was able to use that feeling on the other aspects of my life and I became more confident in myself. Music has been the one constant in my life, and it's been the biggest thing that has helped my recovery.

I feel like there is still people who don't know how much anxiety, depression and mental health in general effects peoples health and well being so many people suffer with mental health and it's important to educate your self on mental Health and acknowledge mental health I wish that everyone in the world wasn't cruel but they are and it's important to know that what they say doesn't matter and there so many people who make comments that they might not mean to be mean or offensive but they are people just don't realize and that's why we need to educate our selves on it!

I don't think people realize how awful depression and anxiety is, how it takes a toll on people's health.  People who are in those ruts experience: "You just want attention." or "Stop worrying!" or "Well don't be sad."  Those with depression, anxiety, etc, get brushed off until they take a turn for the worse.  I find it awful that some people just poke and prod at those who are in a rut just because they think it's funny, then are surprised when they suddenly disappear.  People are so arrogant and offensive that they don't realize what they say or do could be hurting someone else.

Ou I really agree with how our society is rn. I feel like a lot of students believe that they need validation from others to feel better about themselves.

I wonder how many teachers in our school who have students with anger issues, depression, anxiety, etc, have put on music for those students.

I agree with him but it’s hard to reach out for some people I feel. Like personally I know I don’t like to reach out to people because I don’t know if they understand what I feel, but he is right about “just keep going”. Mental health needs to become a bigger conversation.

I agree that music is an overlooked subject in schools and should be seen as more than just an extracurricular, mainly for the reason that it can improve mental health and success in other academic subjects. These things are important in school and knowing that music can improve it should tell schools that music is a much more important subject than they treat it as.

Whenever I'm at home working on a personal project, homework, etc, I always find myself listening to music.  Just having music in the background motivates me to finish that essay or add another slide to my presentation.  Starting out with band 1st period is a blessing, I must say.  When I have bad days, I find myself tapping my foot along to the beat and by 2nd period I feel so much better!

i think music is a really good tool, when you have all these emotions built up that you can't express you can use music to let everything out

Music does help people with ADHD! It helps the brain focus more on the music and makes it feel like there isn't "traffic" in your brain. (In other words not being able to think about only one thing at a time). But it also helps people express whats going on currently in their life. I have been doing this a lot as of recently, its a great way to let out some emotions or just to let you know you're not the only one in that situation or feel that way. And in some cases music can be used as a way to call out for help. iykyk what i'm talkin about.
