SamoKodela Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I have become quite convinced in the last few months I have amusia, which is a wider more complex term for basicaly tone deafness. By new reasearch it is not 4 percent but only 1.5 procent of people who have this disease and it can also happen because of cognitive mental problems and is not necessarily present from birth. The problem is, when you are not hearing things right, your brain and other people can easily confuse you in various directions, but I think I'm slowly crawling out of trouble. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amusia https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28224991/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5373691/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamoKodela Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 And this is not about being successful and I know that by asking people on the forum whether I have amusia is almost like wanting validation for my music. But perhaps what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamoKodela Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 And I'm actually getting more and more integrated into society with music, but I'm also quite worried at times. And it's hard for me, because except for a few little a bit of grandiose moments in my life, I'm very unconfident, although it's certainly getting better. I love this forum honestly and I can never quit music, but I had such hard times in life. Please read the letter that I wrote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamoKodela Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 I'm sorry, I should have never posted this topic, I just have to believe in my singing! I promise I won't write about myself anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamoKodela Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 I believe in my singing for quite a long time now, but I had a terrible nightmare about everyone hearing music right and me being like the guy in Metallica One video.

Bong-Man Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Maybe it's time for a new musical direction. Get yourself a balalaika and let someone else sing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
