How Taylor Swift Is Always There For Me

I want to discuss how I have used Taylor’s songs as music therapy. When I was 19, I was very depressed about a breakup that occurred with somebody. I did not want to tell everybody how I felt because I would sound like a crazy guy who only talked about his problems. I needed to find a way to express my feelings. Some of her songs such as “Back to December” and “All Too Well” are about a relationship ending and how you really miss the person and want them back. I could not believe that Taylor created such beautiful lyrics and that they relate to me so much. I realized that I am not alone and that somebody else experienced what I went through. I was happy to know that after some time, their wounds healed and they ended up being okay. I eventually moved on from this person, and I honestly could not have done this without the help of Taylor’s music. Both our stories show that music therapy can help the social and emotional needs of an individual.
