One of the top and recommended remedy to depression is to listen to good music, music that uplifts the spirit and soul.
But this idea is often met with criticism, as many claim that they get even more depressed after listening to music.

What do you think?
 
Music is therapeutic especially when you get the genres that suits your mood. Good music lifts the spirit and soul, out from depression and anxiety.
 
Music gives me a wide range of emotions, but it surely makes me feel better when I feel down. This especially at night when such feelings are prevalent.
 
I am a huge music lover and I have always found that music has helped me greatly when I have been down or felt depressed.

Music is great if you are looking for that lift me-up or even motivation when you feel like you can't keep going.
 
Currently listening to music now. Music is therapeutic and I can never go away from it rather it takes me to the imagination I always feel to touch.

Many can testify to the fact that these feelings are much more prevalent in the night. It’s good that you use music to relief yourself when you are down.
 
Yes, I love music so much. It helps to reduce my mental stress and relax my nerves. This is why I play music at all times but it's always going to be a soothing song.

Of course what is worth doing is worth doing well. We all have a list of our favorite songs and that is what we play when we need to feel better.

I don't go a day without playing music. Every morning is for my boosting time especially going to work. I will be on my headphone till it's noon. Music helps my life a lot.
 
Life is not complete without music. It really helped me so much when I was deeply depressed for 7 years. I never knew that I was going to heal and be better today. Music is wonderful.

Music can really help one to cheer up. When I consider the number of people that have been helped to deal with one emotional problem and another I do not dispute that fact.

I'm saying this out of experience. I can't go a day without playing music, I even make sure that I have the necessary items to play my music and it has been blissful with my soul.
 
Music sure lifts my mood. And I mean the meaningful ones, not the ones that contain vulgar lyrics, as that can add insult on injury!
