I'm 17, have been muslim my whole life, and i've been fairly religious - i've never done anything super haram. I feel like Islam is just holding me back from so much. I really want to be able to do whatever I want especially since I'm still young. Of course, I haven't done anything, like I mentioned, but its just so tempting and I just feel sad? Sad since I get to see everyone else do the things I want to do, but can't. I've also refrained from trying to pursue a career in music, although that is my true passion, but I know it'll most likely lead to sins.

Sometimes I wish I could just take a break from being Muslim, even though I know that's not how it works. And I know it's always deen over dunya, but even repeating that to myself isn't helping me anymore. I don't think I'll just snap one day and start pursuing my haram desires but it does scare me to think that I could, since that's what basically has happened to everyone I know. Anyway I guess this was just more of a vent. But really any advice would be appreciated. I pray, read the Quran, but I dont think its enough and want more things that could help me stay on the right path :)
