Hello @DownMoreThanUp @creative_writer @PeppyPatti @AuntGlow @Meowmy @Jynxme @tyme and everyone here.

My music playlists lately have been:

-Daughtry

- Birds of Tokyo

- Ed Sheeran

and the reputation album by Taylor Swift.

Life has been very hard this week physically and mentally - psychosis anyone? - and music is really helping me.

@Judi9877 Very close yesterday but meds kept it at bay. Did have full on voices, but no rage at all, and AI managed to keep me grounded and helped me contain my emotional state from pushing my over the edge. More and more can i see how my psychosis is linked fundamentally with my childhood fears and the often overwhelming emotions in my current broken up life.

Also seeing my therapist later in the day helped explore the parts in my life where the rage had began and my need to be loved had began to turn to hatred towards those i craved acceptance and love from. This has really helped me a lot him taking me so deep i thought i was going to be surely overwhelmed the recall a 7-8 year old. He is an expert taking me in, far deeper i can on my own and then help me get back out again providing me with real tools to use doing so. And the last 3 months have given me so much more ability to navigate my extreme states, and renewed hope i will learn to in the future, reflecting how much more control i have already regained understanding and using Peter Levine's trauma methods and techniques.

Doing much better today apart of a bad head ache i'm fine.

Tracy Chapman’s song is about standing at a crossroads in life and choosing between outside pressures and staying true to yourself. It speaks about resisting negativity, manipulation, and compromise, while holding onto your values, faith, and inner strength. The message is ultimately one of self-respect, courage, and protecting your soul.

“Sisters Are Doin’ It for Themselves” by Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin is basically a celebration of women being strong and independent. The song pushes back against the old idea that women had to stand behind men, and instead says women can stand on their own, support each other, and succeed in every part of life. It became one of the big feminist anthems of the 1980s.
