Up until recently I enjoyed many kinds of music from the varying subgenres in classical music, to rap/hip-hop, hard rock, and early 2000’s techno/dance/electronic.

Now, I can only enjoy very few kinds of music without becoming depressed. I enjoy classical music that uses all parts of an orchestra; strings, air, percussion, keys. My absolute favorite music is trance/electronic/house, but that isn’t the right way for me to put it. Inside those few areas are a handful of songs that remain my favorites throughout different stages of my life. I keep one main playlist with under 15 songs. If I skip a song twice, I take it out. Music is very powerful when it comes to emotions, and me being so empathetic makes music the only thing I can’t keep from making me cry. For an example, any song or tune that even slightly resembles a country song will make me struggle with insanely sudden, intense, depression. This is the only time this happens to me, but I really can’t listen to music outside of my (literal) comfort zones anymore 🙁
