Don't Let the Music Stop

One of the symptoms of long term EEE is cognitive

One of the symptoms of long term EEE is cognitive mood changes, especially depression. Days like today where I am in a flare and don't feel good, am dealing with a good deal of pain, and everything goes wrong just messes with me and makes it hard to want to keep going. These are the times I need music to get through the day and to try and relax.

As hard as it was today, I took the time to lie on the couch, put on @hypno5eofficial and tried to drowned out the depressive, self-hateful thoughts I find hard to control during bad flare-ups.

A Distant (Dark) Source isn't what I would consider a happy or even a cathartic album, but it is a masterpiece of musicianship and the story, which I am still trying to figure out completely, gives the listener something cerebral to enjoy.

It's not always the message or the tone of the music that matters. It's more important what it gives you and what you get from it. Any music that takes you away from your life, makes you sing or dance, gives you a moment of levity, gives you a positive release, or just makes you smile is good music.

If you are finding the day as difficult as I am, turn up your favorite song, playlist, or album and give yourself a much needed break.

The medications got you beaten
When you're looking for hope and you're lost in the deep end
You find a reason to keep breathing"

Just as we look to the artist for our inspiration, they look to us for theirs. That is one of the most powerful things about art, and especially music. It brings everyone together to celebrate, to share a common love, and to heal when we need to.

A small reminder from @kobraandthelotusofficial off of their latest album "Evolution", that you are indeed loved and that you do have the strength to rise above your pain and struggles, even if you may have trouble seeing it for yourself right now.

I have been quiet on social media for awhile now as I deal with my Lyme and try to take care of myself and my family.

Music, as always, has been a huge help in dealing with my daily struggles, anxieties, and at giving me a distraction when I need it. Without it, and the support of my wife, I am not sure I would have made it this far.

One of my favorite albums of the year would have to be "Gold and Grey" by @yourbaroness and "Seasons" is one of my favorite songs off the album.
On Friday I had to go in for a picc line and my first treatment of antibiotics that will last four weeks. Sitting at home prior to the appointment I was seriously anxious about what was to come and I found myself pacing around non-stop. So, I decided to put on "Gold and Grey" and lay on the couch, close my eyes, and try to calm myself down. Listening to the album gave me the relief and distraction I so desperately needed at that moment.

This is what art, especially music, does for us. It gives us relief, it transports us to a different place, it helps us remember better times, and it gives us a few moments of peace and clarity. It may not be the solution to life's problems, but it is a key ingredient to finding our center and to remind us that life can be a beautiful and wonderful thing.

Sunday is usually supposed to be a day of rest, a day for self care. So, put in your favorite album or playlist today, find a comfortable place to relax, maybe a book to read, and take care of yourself. You deserve it.

The more intense the darkness, the brighter the light shines.
As @rikemmett had told me in an interview a few years back which has stuck with me, "The darkness informs the light: it gives the light its full purpose and meaning"

Have a great Friday!

Sometimes the best thing we can do for someone who is struggling is to let them know that you see what they are going through and will be there, by their side without judgement if they need you.

With a new album full of themes of mental illness

With a new album full of themes of mental illness and recovery, this simple mantra seemed to put it all together for me.

We all have the ability to be reborn in light, but the road is never easy, and no one path works the same for everyone. Just remember that you can make it out of the darkness, and asking for help may be the first step.

And don't forget to bring your favorite music to make the journey more enjoyable.

Have a great weekend.

Creating something is an effective way work through difficult times and release negative energy that may be building up inside of us. Writing, singing, dancing, painting, scribbling, blog, or vlog...it doesn't matter your medium, or if what you create is ever made public. It only matters that you create and make it through another day.
