Haha...I know about the almighty algorithm, but that's not really the case for what I mean.
Ex: On Spotify, I have both happy songs and sad songs. I click on the sad songs and choose the sad playlists when I'm sad, even though they just propagate sadness. The option to choose the happy songs is right there and I'm not being "pushed" by some computer to pick the sad option. I just do.
The playlist sparked a memory for me. A DBT suggestion was to make a playlist for when you are feeling sad. We were told to start with a song or two that matched the darker mood we would be experiencing THEN add songs of increasing positivity. That way the negative feelings are validated before moving on to changing the mood/thoughts. Cause yeah being in the dumps and listening to a happy song only makes me cry harder. 😭. Validate feelings first. Then move toward the goal.
