摘要

自新冠肺炎爆发以来，焦虑和抑郁情绪大幅增加。对许多人来说，在线乐迷提供了一个重要的平台来对抗孤独和帮助幸福。在这项研究中，我使用民族志，在康复的心理社会理论和音乐粉丝的社会学理论的支持下，通过Rory Gallagher Instagram粉丝社区的支持，追踪我从心理健康危机中恢复的个人历程（2020-2022）。具体来说，我调查了社区如何成为幸福的积极支持机制，我与Rory和他的音乐的关系自加入社区以来发生了怎样的变化，以及对Rory个人斗争的了解，加上我自己的经历，如何使我成为一名心理健康倡导者。总的来说，这项研究引起了人们对在线音乐社区作为心理健康状况的非正式、整体调节剂的重要性的关注，并为卫生服务提供了获得心理健康护理的替代方法。

Music for Mental Health: An Autoethnography of the Rory Gallagher Instagram Fan Community

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, there has been a major increase in anxiety and depression. For many, online music fandoms have offered an important platform to combat loneliness and aid well-being. In this study, I use autoethnography, supported by psychosocial theory on recovery and sociological theory on music fandoms, to track my personal journey of recovery (2020–2022) from a mental health crisis through the support of the Rory Gallagher Instagram fan community. Specifically, I investigate how the community acts as a positive support mechanism for well-being, how my relationship with Rory and his music has changed since joining the community, and how knowledge of Rory’s own personal struggles, coupled with my own experiences, have empowered me to become a mental health advocate. Overall, the study brings attention to the importance of online music communities as informal, holistic regulating agents for mental health conditions and offers alternative ways for health services to approach mental health care.
