Music

I was very blessed to be able to study the violin and viola growing up.  It was a huge part of my childhood.  Not only did I learn to play, but I learned to love music.

Throughout my illness, listening to and creating music have been huge coping strategies.  My mental health peers have also talked about how music helps them cope.

Are you listening to music right now?
