Why music is so important for me

[OuterSpaceBoy]

Music seems to be the only way for me to escape the massive pressures of my everyday life. I have tried to describe why that is and what music means to me. You can read it here if you like:

Escape and music

It's my main escape route too but maybe I don't listen to it as much as I ought.

Yep music is my escape too.

Wow, I hope you are over your medical problem? I had surgery a year ago for an umbilical hernia. The hardest part was definitely the fact that I was not in control. It was my first time under general anesthesia and I was terrified. It was a lot of worry over nothing.

I enjoyed your blog on music. It is so awesome how much music changes how we feel. I listen to all kinds depending on what mood I'm in. Sometimes it's some escape music like Pink Floyd which transports me to another universe. Sometimes it may be feel good music like classic rock or country. If I'm in a Jesus mood and want to get into my spiritual side it might be southern gospel.

I hope the guitar goes good. I've always wanted to learn an instrument just never taken the time.

Music is great!

i think its good youve got an outlet for your life pressures, music is very powerful.

i spent years being unable to listen to music or indeed any sound and i was pretty much housebound by it;i had progressed to profound hyperacusis and misophonia-possibly due to the head banging injuries i suffered,before that i was a metal lover, i am now back into metal [and electronic,some rap,some classical, anti anxiety music on youtube etc] but theres something missing i dont quite get as tranced by music that i did before.
