cheers guys, I shall try and post a preview later when I have access to it. This help is all really good. So far everyone seems to agree that it can be used in a therapeutic means! thank you for all the help guys!

This is all helping me greatly to actually talk to people who have used music in this way. Its really interesting to see how music can effect everyone! Thank you if you do my survey! I am in need of 20+ more participants unfortunatley! but its all shaping up nicely and bringing forward some great thoughts on the subject.

I've actually done a great deal of research into Nordoff and robins, some of there work is excellent. I've been looking into post war poets who used lyrics to get over there post war emotions. I found that really interesting. The whole concept is interesting. I'm tasked with writing 10,000 words on it so its a good job i find it interest ha. Pretty good to hear when other people aswell feel that it can be used as a means of releasing emotion.

Hey Guys, This is my first serious post within this forum. As I had previously mentioned in other posts I am currently doing my final year research project and it is based on how music can be used as a form of release from certain states of mind. Taking this for example.... This clip shows how Darden Smith used lyrics and music as a way to help soldiers defeat PTSD, my current research project challenges how this happens, and I am currently trying to gather opinions from the people behind the lyric writing, people who have been doing it for a while and have experience within the field. I am guessing people like you? I am currently needing a few people to fill in a survey which I have put together to challenge my hypothesis. It will only take 5 minutes of your time and will help me greatly. Once it has been finished and my final conclusions have been made I would be more than happy to place a link online for everyone to read. I'm hoping it would make a very interesting read for the people of these forumns! Many thanks, hope you guys can assist me and I will be more than happy to help you guys out with certain things. Regards Dan! Thanks guys! completely forgot to post the link to the survey...... https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lp4wvQ0j_mhiGaacQFer8wRKMrxNvWDCSeAcfcxnSac/viewform here it is.
