Hey everyone. I've recently posted forums about my obsession that I will never be able to sit back and just enjoy music again. I love music tremendously and this has been bothering me significantly. Anyway, I went on a three hour trip to see my girlfriend which is a whole other story in itself, but I thought this would be a good time to see how much this bothers me. I have to admit that I was in my head about it most of the trip. By the time I got to my destination I was pretty anxious about it. I've been trying to float through these thoughts and accept but I'm having alot of trouble with this idea. One afternoon with my girlfriend I did have a pretty good time listening to music. we later went to a concert and most of the time I was just ready to leave. I get so depressed that I have to deal with this and that I'm having this obsession. I try to remember that I had a glimpse of a good time, but I seem to slip so easy back into the cycle of being in my head about this latest obsession. I did it most of the way back home. So much of the time it just seems impossible that I won't do this some day. I've had many obsessions that have bothered me significantly,like this one, and they have passed/returned/passed, you know, anyway this one has got ahold of me good and I'm trying to practice what I've learned in the program, but i'm a little hopeless off and on right now. Could use some support and advice from all of you who have been through this. I can't wait to hear from someone who knows what I'm going through. A few people on my other posts thought this obsession wasn't that bad and this upset me somewhat. Not being able to enjoy music is very depressing to me. Maybe some other people can't relate to this obsession, but I feel that the topic of the obsession has little to do with how much it can affect you. If it bothers you, it bothers you, and this one bothers me tremendously. Everyone's previous replies have been very helpful and I can't wait to get some more. Hope everyone who is out there suffering with this will experience PEACE soon.
