The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

How do you deal with it? Ascertain whether it is the Lord urging you to do His bidding or just what I did back then coming back to haunt me or just mental disorder? If so, then how?

Long story short. Since I was little, I could never live without music. I probably spent my waking moments with headphone on than off (only took it off during classes/in direct company of others). I played guitar and piano casually back then. Until the college years that I was enticed by the world and lived like rubbish. But I never killed my passion and my spirit completely, I just swept it under the rug and compromised with it. Then when I became disillusioned with this fallen world, I came back to the Lord like when I was little. Slowly but surely, I have regained myself and who I truly am like during my adolescent.

The catch is, the passion is taking me all over. I became withdrawn from this world, friends, and family; I want to do nothing more than just to listen to music, to play music (in case anyone ask, mostly instrumental, piano solo, and some few others pop-rock), and nothing else but those save for our Lord.

Should I let myself go with this passion come what may? I am not really sure, but I am really happy with it. Maybe I still have doubts? I do not know, I can barely think or talk straight these days. I need some thoughts on it.

Friend, this sounds like a sort of obsessive behavior. Having a passion for music is fantastic, but frankly, if it's driving you to be withdrawn to the point of disrupting thoughts, it's not a good thing, even if it feels like it is.

My advice? Schedule time for your musical hobbies and other items in between to keep yourself productive and, more importantly, mentally healthy.

>Being overtaken by passion

I fight it.

Never give up on, anon. It's just that easy and your whole life attains meaning.

Friend, your just crazy.

If music makes you "withdrawn to the point of disrupting thoughts", you either have horrible taste in music, or you're just a winnie the pooh.

Sorta similar to OP, but I only play videogames as my hobby. I don't have any others. If family or someone asks for help, I'll help, and I still go to church, but the most I'll do is go for a walk once or twice a day. I tend to lose friends because of my honesty, so I kinda gave up on it.
