Failed To Get Coldplay Tickets? Psychologist: Time To Go Back To Realistic

JAKARTA - Many Coldplay fans feel surprised because they have not managed to get a ticket to their idol band concert. But don't let it drag on so as not to reduce work productivity.

"Back to being realistic. Back to real life what is being done," suggested a psychologist from the Banten Mega Tala Harimukthi area Clinical Psychologist Association, quoted from ANTARA, Friday, May 19.

Mega argues that being disappointed because she doesn't get what she wants, including group or idol concert tickets, is normal, but if this becomes depression then it's too much.

"Disappointed because you don't get what you want is natural. But if you can't get a concert ticket, it feels a bit exaggerated. So you can't be realistic," he said.

Mega then said it was related to fanatics and fanaticism. Fanatic refers to a person who has excessive understanding, passion, excessive preference for something. The previous theory thought that a fanatic was said to be able to even harm his opponent, who did not touch him.

While fanaticism is an understanding of someone who usually has excessive interest in something.

According to Mega, a person may like certain music groups as long as they are not internalized into him so that his daily activities continue to run and do not interfere with his relationship with other people around him. A person is still said to like something, for example, a certain group of music from a country if he can still distinguish between reality and just pleasure.

Then, regarding the price of group concert tickets that can reach millions of rupiah, he argues that some people may have reached a supportive position or finance so they can afford it.

Especially if the group you like has been poor across the music industry for more than 25 years and their fans are on average 30 years old.

Mega argues, getting a concert ticket and watching the appearance of this favorite group actually leads to inner satisfaction to enjoy moments with the favorite group which may ultimately not be measurable with the nominal money.
