Kinda the same reason you would be willing to watch a sad TV show or something. It hurts but you can’t deny that it is well written enough to make you cry so it’s hard to hate it as a result.
It’s often cathartic, feeling like someone is right by your side feeling the pain you feel now. It helps us to not feel alone and there’s comfort in that.
Helps them empathize, and allows people to know and feel cared for that some other fantastic people out there are going through the same things and you'll get through it together.
That's what I used to do. As long as you listen to happy songs later and it helps you cheer up, I'm glad. Let me know if you ever need someone to talk to, though. 😊
Most people on here said that it helps them cry and let it all out. So, I'm glad now that some people actually prefer listening to them if it really helps them.
I have a wildly different idea about this. I don't need to let it out. I need to solve the problems. Sitting in a corner and feeling sorry for myself will not helpm
I understand. It all comes down to the types of personalities. You are a problem solver. Quite practical. Some are emotional and just need to let things out by sharing their problems with loved ones or listen to sad songs as long as it makes them feel better, I'm glad they do whatever they choose to do
That's nice. I'm the type of person who shares stuff with loved ones and then try to see if I can actually come up with a solution, if it's not something I can fix, I just prepare myself to move on and focus on other stuff instead
No it makes all sad but it makes to go faster the sadness u had prob long time sad which hapnd to all in a period of time when we move on and make some big changes in our life and maybe things get abit more hard but tjats life instinct of humans in the end anyways find the way to his happiness in the end
I start to feel like what I'm listening to! I prefer to listen to calming instrumental and nature sounds, but spending time in the wild is the most effective therapy. There is no necessary music.
That is actually a good idea! Thank you! I have played nature sounds few times when I couldn't fall asleep. It certainly helped me relax and fall asleep. I should try that the next time I'm feeling sad
I have never done it I usually talk to people to deal with it. But I guess most people can relate their situation to the sad sons that's why they do it.
i like sad songs when i'm not sad. But when i'm having a hard time with something, I'm like you. I much prefer happy songs or it's just way too depressing
I don't know but i listen to pop music when i m sad or motivational songs. Becz if a person is already sad he/she get more upset. Isi lia mujhe inspirational songs hi ache lgte hain rather then sad one.
I avoid listening to them when I'm sad as it makes me cry even more. I don't wanna cry until I fall asleep because it makes me feel miserable when I wake up. I feel better if I share my problems or just listen to some soothing songs instead

Ah, yes! That's true

Ah! I see. Thank you for sharing.
No problem!
Helps them empathize, and allows people to know and feel cared for that some other fantastic people out there are going through the same things and you'll get through it together.
because hearing someone else have similar problems helps i guess
Ah, I see
I usually listen to sad songs to let the tears fall out then after I stop crying I listen to happy and uplifting songs to cheer me back up.
That's what I used to do. As long as you listen to happy songs later and it helps you cheer up, I'm glad. Let me know if you ever need someone to talk to, though. 😊
Because they are stupid? Or maybe because the sad songs reflect their inner state?
I don't know. I always listen to upbeat music.

I can understand that, of course. But yes, I'm a practical dude.
That's nice. I'm the type of person who shares stuff with loved ones and then try to see if I can actually come up with a solution, if it's not something I can fix, I just prepare myself to move on and focus on other stuff instead
I don't have tha luxury, unfortunately. So I adapted myself to cope.
I'm really sorry to hear that. :/
Don't be. At least I am strong enough to handle myself.
:Yeah )
I do some of my best thinking when I'm in that headspace, so I listen to sad music to kinda keep it going.
Ah! That's interesting
Surely it does make sadnes go faster in my chase, i realize that sadnes is always there in soul like a need sometimes for it
So, I guess it's makes many people feel calm while the other people like me have quite the opposite effect
No it makes all sad but it makes to go faster the sadness u had prob long time sad which hapnd to all in a period of time when we move on and make some big changes in our life and maybe things get abit more hard but tjats life instinct of humans in the end anyways find the way to his happiness in the end
I see. Thank you for explaining!

I do it cause I can relate and helps me cry (after crying I feel kinda better somehow)
I see.
i like sad songs when i'm not sad. But when i'm having a hard time with something, I'm like you. I much prefer happy songs or it's just way too depressing

i first listen to sad songs which helps to acknowledge the sadness then happy songs which helps to lift up the mood
I've done that few times
You Individually do not know a Soldier's life do You? I am sorry for that.
Pardon me?
I don't know but i listen to pop music when i m sad or motivational songs. Becz if a person is already sad he/she get more upset. Isi lia mujhe inspirational songs hi ache lgte hain rather then sad one.
It's not good to suppress the tears so it's better to bring yourself down using sad music, cry it all out and be perfectly fine after.
Ah! Thank you for explaining.
Because you can feel the music as well as hear it due to the lyrics being relatable at the time.
It's with my mood I feel bit sadder but then I chear up n put something on to be more happy too.
I see
And you? What you thinking
I avoid listening to them when I'm sad as it makes me cry even more. I don't wanna cry until I fall asleep because it makes me feel miserable when I wake up. I feel better if I share my problems or just listen to some soothing songs instead
It's all that kind of works for me I can't let out my feelings mostly.
Crying is a natural way to release any pent up emotions, if your feeling sad crying is a good way to let those emotions out
