I love music. Sad music tends to make me sad or pensive and happy music gets on my nerves but hype music makes me happy.

Before APs I used to really be into music but today I’m not so enthusiastic about listening to music even though I will play some music from time to time.
I don’t know, it could be because of the negative symptoms as well

Hating music is a loss
