> I have found that while I was in the hospital and while attending a partial day program that when they would play that soothing "mood music" that it would have an exact opposite effect on me. I would find myself getting enraged and pissed off.Has anyone else had this reaction or am I just odd???
You are not odd. The very same thing happens to me. I picked up some of those "relaxation" cd's once and popped them in one night when I was feeling really uptight and anxious. Well, the anxiety turned slowly into freaky rage. I just wanted to punch holes in walls and I didn't have a clue why. I have noticed since, that it happens everytime that kind of music is playing, even if it's just in the 'background' I get a little nutty when that "option" is even mentioned to me if I'm anxious or upset. It's quite a trigger for me.
I'm sure you'll get other responses too. I don't think you're alone in this one.T
