As a kid, music was one of few emotionally safe places. To this day, I’ll spread out on the floor with my headphones listening to music while reading album credits. Wooo Mary J Blige music helped me through some emotional moments 📺

October 10th is #WorldMentalHealthDay . So many of us turn to music as a mental health tool - to soothe, to calm, to quiet internal voices, to dance, to be a source of affirmation... What role does music play in your mental health?
