Hey, @ee222. ๐Ÿ‘‹

Love this post!

During tough times, gospel music helps me a lot.  One of my favorite stations for gospel on Pandora is: Sunday Service Radio

Here's a song I like that always puts me in a good mood and lifts my spirits (not a Gospel song):

You Say  by Lauren Daigle. I will add a couple more from Lauren Daigle. 

How Can It Be by Lauren Daigle. Love Like This by Lauren Daigle. My last song I will add is a much older song, but a great song as well. Storms Never Last  by Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show. 

Take care and stay safe.

@ee222 I should've included this song in my first post but here is another great song about hardships, struggles, heartbreak, and the storms that people face in life. The name of the song is called The Rose by Bette Midler, It is a great metaphor for life's hardships and difficulties. The Rose  ๐ŸŒน by Bette Midler. 

Take care and stay safe.

One song I really love is Life Is Wonderful by Jason Mraz. It's in my faves playlist.

Life goes on by BTS. Honestly I donโ€™t know where Iโ€™d be without this song. I guess thats why I appreciate BTS so much, the helped me, and songs like airplane pt.2 made me want to dance in my hardest times. Other song is A Little Faith- Riley Clemmons. So Iโ€™m a Christian and this song taught me that a little faith goes a longโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ. Way.

@ee222 here is another great song that fits your post. Anybody Out There (Acoustic) by Astreae. Take care and stay safe.

Hi, @ineedhelp777. ๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling your best. When I'm feeling low, music really helps. I enjoy gospel to get me through tough times. If not gospel music, I usually go for upbeat easy listening music like this song from the album Horizons:

Does anyone go through depression and anxiety like I do because it **ahem** and none of my family get it. Itโ€™s like you go through it and your family doesnโ€™t even exist in that moment or moments

I will never use that lifeline because my sister did and they practically killed her. Once they talked to her the next day she committed suicide. Also Iโ€™m not using it because I will feel that way even if im going through anxiety and depression.

Itโ€™s okay, I get really sensitive when people bring up the suicidal hotlines itโ€™s like Iโ€™m reliving the memories I had with my sister and then her dying again. So I am so sorry for speaking to you like that.
