I have been through a number of breakups in my time on this earth and I have always found that what always helps me through is good music. Music has a way to say what I didn't even think I was thinking in a way that sounds like I wrote it myself. When going through a breakup it's important to have this because often times you're not sure how to feel about it. There's the feeling of extreme loss and sadness towards the situation. There's the feeling of anger towards the person who let you down, or betrayed you, or whatever the situation may be. There are even the feelings of hopefulness towards your future and goodwill toward this person you've shared part of your life and soul with. I've attempted to make a playlist that covers all the emotions one can possibly feel in a breakup that I hope can help others, like me, who don't know where to turn when their world turns upside down.
