Music to cope with

heavyiron382 · 2022-01-29T01:19:03+00:00

When Legends Rise, the entire album from Godsmack is very fitting and has been great listening for me

skittlebrow · 2022-01-28T23:31:03+00:00

Best song that applies to this entire subreddit, "She Got the Goldmine, (i got the shaft)", by the late great Jerry Reed. Even if you ain't a fan of country, you have to laugh and love this song.

IDFWU Big Sean

Depends on the mood. If you're angry Hurt you by Cody Jinks is good. Load and Heavy by Cody Jinks as well. Take What You Want- Post Malone. Goodbyes- Post Malone

Slipknot - dead memories, vermillion pt2, wait and bleed, snuff, unsainted

So good

Hard to give you direct answers, I listened to My Obsession by Killswitch and broke down crying because I thought of my daughter that had been taken away. I wish I had better answers.

Darkfire66 · 2022-01-29T00:51:47+00:00

Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers and Chris knight have got me through a lot.

It gets better brother.

oldskoolflavor · 2022-01-28T23:19:05+00:00

Just try and be distracted with whatever you got.

Music means so much to me, that its too intense to listen to everyday. Sometimes I go days without it and that's just the way it is. Just another casualty of the whole thing.

Right this moment I'm listening to Planet Caravan by Black Sabbath, because its Friday night, and I don't have to work tomorrow. I can't go too far down into my sonic rabbit holes, because I need to stay focused until this is over in the spring. For some reason though, early on after the filing, 2 songs by Neil Diamond, Solitary Man, and I am... I said really spoke to me and tore me up, but now I'm not sure if I can listen to them , they are too much. Get ready to cry, but as my wise sage brother in-law who's been through this whole thing says, "crying is the best drug."

Anyway, thanks for reading, it helped me just writing this. Don't get too high or low either way.

Out.

When I was depressed at the beginning, My City Of Ruins by Springsteen. Then it was It’s Alright, It’s Ok by Primal Scream.

Imswim80 · 2022-01-29T00:45:10+00:00

After the separation, "Next Right Thing" from Frozen 2 was pretty comforting.

As time went on "Spring to Come" from John Butler was helpful, as was José Gonzalez "Stay Alive."

And of course, gotta mention two great songs from Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq, This is Shit and No more Fucks to Give.

nepawarden · 2022-01-30T09:05:27+00:00

For those that are divorcing due to her infidelity:

The Rain - Oran Juice Jones

Busted - The Isley brothers

She Cheated again - Dax

Fuck You - Ceelo Green

the entire Low Expectations album - Atlus \ Dennis Sulta

and a very entertaining mashup that was not remixed by me

Don't let her fuck up the rest of you life. Find something you enjoy (or used to enjoy pre relationship) and go do it.

If I was a mobile dj, creating this remix would help me heal from all the trauma my exwife may have done to me.

Sea-Mission-6316 · 2022-01-28T23:34:46+00:00

AC/DC

childish_badda_bingo · 2022-01-28T23:52:43+00:00

I found driving and listening to sad country music pretty distracting.

Third_Eye78 · 2022-01-29T00:40:16+00:00

When I needed to vent I cranked some TOOL and when I was feeling chill and wanted to keep that vibe, Bob Marley or any Roots Reggae

RevolutionCareful424 · 2022-01-29T00:41:33+00:00

I listen to happy or cheerful music to cheer myself up. Like Jack is back- extended version, it makes me wanna dance

The latest Amity Affliction album has been going down pretty well lately.

Annything by eleven hundred springs I am still in the same house as her and the songs perfectly describe her and I blare them Blatantly

Basic_Advance7627 · 2022-01-29T01:36:22+00:00

“How’s it gonna be” Third Eye Blind, “Hate Me” Blue October…lots of emo bands. I was super depressed.

Let it burn - Austin Burke

oohtheyhateme · 2022-01-29T04:26:38+00:00

I didn't listen to anything that was relatable to "get me through", but literally what you listened to at the time became the soundtrack to your divorce, lol.

I finally got my hands on a shelved, unreleased album after 18 years of searching and gosh damn it...it was before my divorce was finalized. I'd be lying if I said it didn't taint the listening experience by stamping memories of the divorce a bit when I now play it.

justanotherjonathan · 2022-01-29T04:51:54+00:00

Just hear me out- 1- abcdefu - Gayle (explicit version) 2- bulls on parade - Rage Against the Machine 3- ruthless - MarMar Oso

dranic · 2022-01-29T04:57:35+00:00

For some reason I haven't had any interest in music, and mostly listen to podcasts and audio books. I think it's just the isolation of living with my wife while we wait for our separation date to lapse and we can go to trial. We don't talk to eachother, and I think I just crave conversation that doesn't revolve around all this senseless waste

jtroconisa · 2022-01-29T05:47:36+00:00

time to move on - Tom Petty

derelictherds · 2022-01-29T07:29:28+00:00

Julien8519 · 2022-01-29T19:05:16+00:00

Ariana grandes “next” def. A classic

love_tit_milk · 2022-01-29T19:50:43+00:00

Of course.

Music is a great healer.👍

I am old school and found that

"Everybody hurts" by REM https://youtu.be/5rOiW_xY-kc

and

"Sacrifice" by Sir Elton John https://youtu.be/NrLkTZrPZA4

helped me oodles to cope with the terrible situations because it gives a very human touch that we all are susceptible and are allowed to grieve because it is only a natural human emotion to do so.

Take care and all the best. 💐

Noobdaddy0125 · 2022-01-30T00:57:05+00:00

Jekyll and Hyde by Five Finger Death Punch.

Then

Life Goes On by Johnny Cash

Then

Bridge to Better Days by Joe Bonamassa.

Anger, acceptance and then enjoying whatever good things that come with living your life after.

geraltofoblivia · 2022-01-30T02:29:17+00:00

I know it's not everybody's cup of tea but I enjoyed I Prevails album "Trauma". It's not exactly that deep but it puts a big ass spotlight on mental illness, depression, anger, sadness, etc. The song "Let Me Be Sad" hit me pretty hard the first time I heard it.

OlDirty1979 · 2022-01-30T12:15:28+00:00
