Do you ever just stop listening to music for a long period of time/lose interest?

    I mean any genre, like you'd just prefer to watch something/do something/sit in silence instead. Lately I've been listening to a fair bit of music again, but for the past year or so i listened to like 4 artists and nothing else and would sometimes go a week or two without playing a song.

    Thinking about me, it feels kinda weird, cause 3 years ago if i left the house without headphones i was right fucken pissed off c----. Now i don't even realize/care. I'd also say for probably 13 or so years i had music playing from speakers in my room at all times if i was there. I would even go to friends houses and be like "yup oi lets chuck on some beats" and start playing my music, now i just don't even think about it.

    So yeah do you guys think I have downs syndrome or what?

    Yeah nah I know what you mean. I've had days where I couldn't be f----- listening to music.

    But that's pretty rare for me.

    There's days/weeks when I don't listen to much music at all but I don't recall a day when I didn't listen to any music at all

    Whenever I get into a TV Show I spend a lot less time listening to music.

    Even now, Young Thug, 2 Chainz, Vince Staples and Jay Z all released great projects and Im addicted to the game of thrones soundtracks lol.

    I definitely have those stretches too, in fact my situation is pretty similar to yours.

    From the age of 11 to around 20 I was obsessed with music and listened to it all the time, now its mainly at the gym or when I'm in the car. Also it's never a priority for me to hear a new album anymore even if it's by an artist I'm a huge fan of.

    Things change, oh well.

    yeah i think. People thought i was in my 30's for a while, so like posting here clearly increases your age by 10 or so years. If you want to continue to enjoy music for as long as possible may I suggest stop posting

    Not really. Sometimes if I'm hungover or coming down and in an irritable mood I sometimes cbf when I walk to the shops to get food but that's like two ten minute stretches. They're the only occasions. Otherwise I'm literally incapable. HATE when I lose my earphones or they're broken.
