It really depends on the amount of stress I'm in.... Sometimes the music soothes me, sometimes when I'm really beeping, it can make me joyous and almost euphoric, then sometimes, like today. My stress level was so bad, my blood pressure skyrocketed and I couldn't listen to any music at all.
I like music not for who it is, or the words, it's how it makes me feel. When I'm really depressed I won't listen to ole sad ballads or country, I listen to rap or something to try to lift my spirits, just something that has a good beat.
