Wheel here!
Greetings, my name is sympatheticWheel9388, but you can call me Wheel. I just found 7cups today, and already feel so welcomed! I've been dealing with a lot of depression, stress and anxiety and am currently attending a local outpatient program. I also get pretty lonely, so I've been really enjoying hearing everybody share in the sharing circle group.
I'd love to hear from you! Here's an icebreaker in case you're not sure how to respond: "If you could only listen to one type of music for the rest of your life, what would it be?"

@sympatheticWheel9388 If I could only listen to one type of music for the rest of my like, I would certainly miss the other genres, but I would probably choose rock. The definition is vague enough to include a lot of different sounds that range from ballads to heavy metal. I listen to a little bit of everything but I honestly don't think I could go the rest of my life listening to only one type of music, it would close off my worldview.
@tiredlittleguy Thanks for sharing. That's a good perspective! I think that rock is a good choice for the reasons you mentioned. For me, it also makes me feel alive, and energized compared to other genres.
I'm also having a hard time thinking of one genre to listen to my entire life. I still don't think I have an answer yet to be honest..
Welcome, Wheel! I'm Kiara. Tell us more about you? <3
Definitely Christian :) But if that wasn't an option, I'd go with what @tiredlittleguy said. Rock encompasses a lot of different genres <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 Hi Kiara, nice to meet you! Is there anything specific you want to know? Here's a fun fact about me, I enjoy playing the piano after a long day. I think it helps me to cope.
Have you tried the Music course on DuoLingo yet? They also have a math and chess course :)
Do you have pets? Any plans for this week? <3
Probably old indie rock and welcome from a fellow newbie
Welcome to 7Cups! I’m glad you’re here <3 I’m Kiara :)
@sympatheticWheel9388
I would definitely choose classical. And believe me thats a strategic decision. Classical music soothe brain and improve its functioning, so it support me in brewing my world domination shemes.
Hey there, if I could listen to one type of music it would be reggae as I am from the Caribbean
Hi Wheel! 😊
Welcome to 7Cups. It's great to have you here. It’s really brave of you to open up, and I’m glad the community is already making you feel supported. The sharing circle is a lovely space, and I hope it keeps bringing you comfort.
As for your icebreaker, I'd go with chill lo-fi beats. They're calming and help me unwind.
