Growing in Faith and Handling Uncertainty

Assalamu alaikum. I’ve been trying to get closer to my deen and have cut out things like music, but honestly, I’m struggling to figure out how to balance this while living in a Western society. I was talking to someone and suggested they give it up too, but they pointed out it’s practically impossible to avoid-like at weddings or on social media-and I kinda get it now. So many everyday things here feel like they cross into haram territory, and when I share advice, I worry I come off as too strict or extreme. It’s making me question how I can maintain friendships when it’s so hard to open up about these changes.
