It depends. Generally, they lift my spirits and make me feel better, but when I'm really low cheerful songs just get on my nerves.

Music feels like water, a life essence in a different way.
It does sometimes, right? But that I attribute to them being rather simple and in large, made to appeal easily. I hope it isn't mostly true?

No, if I listened to that it would just make me want to leave this world even more. Anything which is positive and cheerful makes me feel even worse.

Sometimes less, sometimes more. I tend to listend to darker music when I am at my lowest points, but still tend to avoid songs that I deem to be *too* sad as those can make it worse tooSimilar threads
