Music as therapy...

Music has many uses. It entertains us, occupies spare time between classes, gives us motivation to exercise, and for me it's a form of therapy. I am bipolar, I have a history of self injury and suicidal thoughts, I've been hospitalized many times, and I know what it's like to feel like there's no way out. Luckily I have music, we all go through tough times and music can always help whether a song helps you smile or even make you realize how lucky you are to be alive. So whether you're bummed out, heart broken, depressed, suicidal, or just need something to make sense in your life here are some of my favorites... (may or may not be triggering, please use your own discretion)

Flyleaf- Much Like Falling

Saosin- You Are Not Alone

Skillet- Last Night

Sick Puppies- Odd One

Evanescence- Tourniquet

Flyleaf- Red Sam

And this girl made an incredible video. I'm not religious but I found this video inspiring. Hopefully you weren't triggered by anything above but this is a great way to end the post. The video shows you that you have a reason to live, you were put here for a reason. Check it out, support Cassie!
