Unbelievable. I will be at 40 days in about two weeks G-d willing.
I cut secular music out of my life as well. I realized that it was necessary if I wanted to go to where I want to be .
It's hard, sometimes I feel that there is a hole within me that will never be filled.
Hatzlocha on hitting the next goal! If you find anything that makes it easier or helps you, let me know.
I was hooked on secular music for a while and i also felt like there was a hole within me when i stopped. However, after some time, not only did i not feel like there was a hole within me, i started feeling much better that i wasn’t listening to it anymore. So i would say just give it some time and be’ezrat hashem this feeling will go away. (I will suggest that you try to fill the time that you used to listen to secular music with some other things so that it will be an easer transition…)
