Making music is like a drug for my self esteem in a way. Hear me out

When I make a good song I get hella happy and excited for about 24 hours. But if I don’t make another one that is good too in those next 24 hours I will end up getting depressed. But then I will listen to my old songs and I will re assure myself that I’m not gonna make a good song every single day. But then I will be on a high again. Well more than a drug, to me music is a roller coaster ride. Well maybe it is like a drug because I need my constant fix and without it I crash and then making more allows me to feel “high” again.

I dunno that never fall in love again song I made the other day was my best song but then yesterday I didn’t finish either or the 2 songs I was working on and it made me feel really depressed. Really crazy. I’m gonna go finish these ones now.

Just keep at it, making music takes effort.

I told Shane McCrae in a workshop I took with him,

They can’t all be great.

He asked, Why can’t they be?

I believe more in the process, I guess.
