Can a person become addicted to music?

There are certain things inside every person that causes strange addictions. The main reason why people become addicted to strange things is because they have a hole in their heart that needs to be filled by God. What happens is that when a person finds something that they enjoy a lot, they use that instead of God as their god.

            This in turn becomes a sort of worship towards that thing.

            Let’s talk about if a person can really get addicted to music.

Yes they absolutely can

            People can get addicted to anything. I remember back when I was playing the guitar a lot, I was addicted to the guitar, more specifically music.

            The reason why I say that I was addicted to music is because I would go into the room where my guitars were and play the guitar nonstop from sunrise to sundown. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night just to play the guitar.

            It was sincerely a problem for me. What’s worse is that, that addiction caused me to not be the musician that I wanted to be.

            I had turned music into my god.

            That addiction hurt me sincerely. Because I wouldn’t eat, I would lose sleep, I didn’t do my homework at school because I was always concerned about music, it was just terrible.

Now that I’ve said that I’ve gotten addicted to music, let’s talk about how to avoid it.

            Anything can turn into a god to us. I know that, that sounds really bad coming from a Christian but hear me out.

            If we place things on top of God, then we have turned that thing into a god.

            This in turn can cause an addiction.

            So, the best way to not turn anything into an addiction is to place God above all else. (This is speaking about strange addictions such as music not speaking about drugs or alcohol even though some similar principles still apply.)

            I’m not an expert a drug and alcohol rehabilitation but I know for a fact that God gives us strength to do the things that we need to do. Therefore, if you pray to God to give you strength to become free from drugs and alcohol, God will do so. Just trust me when I say that God will give you the strength to fight the biggest battles and give you victory.

What do I do if I’m addicted to music?

            If you’re addicted to music, it’s okay, chill out! Something that happened to me that got me off of music was that my mom took away my guitars. My mom took away my guitars for a little bit and afterwards I was a whole lot more calm.

            I actually started to seek God again. I started to seek him and everything was alright.

            Pray to God to give you the strength to get you off of music and God will give you the strength to get you off of music.

            God doesn’t care what you’ve been addicted to. God doesn’t care what you’ve done in life. God wants you to go to heaven, no matter who you are. So, if you have any questions as to how to get to heaven, then pray to him. Or, you can ask me about these questions and I will do my best to answer appropriately.
