is it normal to listen to music to calm yourself

I generally listen to music a couple of hours everyday regardless of my mood, but I do tend to listen to music more often if I am upset or depressed. If I am really feeling down, I like to play music because it soothes me and requires the majority of my attention thus taking my mind off the problem at hand.

Isn't that what it's for?

It's normal

if it were not for music there would be bodyes covering the streets.

Mine pumps me up. I listen to pop, dance and rock.

It's very normal to put music on when sad or depressed or even happy! The choices are endless as there are a variety of songs that reflect how we feel. I just love music!

Yeah, I'd say it's normal.:) I do this too, and sometimes the only thing that's helped my mood is music. It's very important to me, and by the sounds of it, to you too:).
