I think I read in another post that you are nonetheless pushing forward and practicing violin. Is playing the violin almost unbearable too?

I work with audio and music for my job, and on most days, the idea of listening to music for pleasure is almost too sad. I miss the ecstasy and relief and chills it used to give me. But, it's one of the few things I haven't given up on yet, and am determined to enjoy it again some day.
