“I am plagued with an overwhelming sense of anxiety. I get lost in my thoughts and music allows me to sift through the ties that bind my mind; unraveling the knots as if I am peacefully coming undone.”
I am overcome with anxiety; forcing me to yearn for moments of clarity only music can be accompanied with. My anxiety appears when I’m alone and left with my thoughts. I tend to over-think almost every idea and all the consequences that may follow that said action.
I took a hiatus from my blog to focus on myself, mentally and physically. Many people go through the same issues or suffer from an anxiety disorder. I wrote this to raise awareness for mental health and also to show support for those who are like-minded going through the same thing as I am.
You are not alone and it is okay to feel the way you do but do not let the feeling consume you.
I’ve found in these last few weeks that listening to music and writing lyrics I connected to eased my mind. Creating a playlist that best serves my mood and using my music interest as a suitable outlet to express my emotions is imperative. I am exercising more often; feeling as if it gives me back some of the control my anxiety has taken away from me. I recommend sharing your feelings with close family and friends rather than internalizing it. Figuring out the issues you have or the things you have done might put you in a bad head space; (I went through this recently) but the sooner you realize what’s troubling your mind the sooner you can deal with it accordingly.
Soon that bit of imperfection will allow room for light. A sweet progression into a bittersweet life.
