Question

Can you get anxiety from the music you listen to?

Answer 1

I find certain types of music disturbing to my senses and I don't like it. so I don't listen to music that bothers me. there is enough despair and hardship in the world. I certainly don't need it in my music as well. I like music that soothes me.  

Answer 2

Yes. Music can stimulate any emotion just like it can pep you up or make you sad.

Answer 3

yes definitely. especially if the lyrics are sad and depressing. I know for a fact that many doctors' offices don't put music with lyrics in their waiting rooms. That's because many depressed patients ended up reciting the lyrics to their therapists as if it was a part of their lives!

Answer 4

Music can soothe and music can anger.  I had a girlfriend who seriously started acting like a bad a** after listening to Kid Rock or any kind of rap.  She might flip me off or even start punching.  Music definitely affects your mind.

Answer 5

If you are already experiencing worries, racing or recurrent thoughts, and you listen to music that "fits" with that mind-set, (i.e., listening to love songs when you just broke up, or fast, wild love & blood rock when you feel confused or anxious) the music can contribute to your mood.  The music acts as verification of negative or unproductive feelings.  You might want to talk to a trusted adult or a therapist to find the cause of your worries, and stop listening to music that makes you feel anything but GOOD!

Answer 6

yes is does i have battleing panic attack and it does

Answer 7

If the tempo is too fast, it can make your thoughts further speed up.

If the subject matter is really depressing, of course it has an impact on your mood.

There is some research that suggests that music can have a huge impact on not only your mood, but brain wave functioning.
