I advise you not to get into the habit of avoiding music.

The only thing I can’t listen to is Modest Mouse because of an ex. But lots of other music is tied up strongly with that relationship and I still listen to it.

I feel like a lot of other music would have gone the way of Modest Mouse if I had allowed it to. And that would have been a shame.

Push through and keep listening to things you love. It’s your music. No one or nothing should take your things away from you. However, when you’re listening to this music, be mindful of the present. Allow your brain to create new associations.
