Why can't I get a new Instagram?

I had just reached 200 followers on Instagram, and it was going really good for me. One dat, I woke up to check it, and I noticed that I had been logged out. I thought "No biggie, just log back in." I trailed that, and I got a message that said "Your account has been deactivated due to violation or service and terms conditions". I thought that was odd, since I'm only 15 years old, and wasn't doing anything wrong or bad on Instagram. I tried to make a new account, but it keeps giving me the same message. I don't know what to do. I also tried to make a new account on my iPad, but it too gives me the same message. Please help. Instagram has been my addiction, and I don't know what to do. I'm also saving up for a new iPhone, and I'm wondering if I try to make a new account on there if it will give me the same message and block me forever. I'm very scared and sad. I just want my Instagram back, please.

Should I stop listening to music?

I listen to music for the sole purpose of escape.
I don't listen to it because I'm bored, or as a comfort, or am in a dire need a pick me up. (like most normal individuals)
I just need to get away from my *** reality.So, I start imagining and coming up with scenario's of me at social events, travelling, getting married, being famous and recognized as a talented neurotic writer. All of these daydreams come flowing into my head as I press the "play" button on my iPhone.
When I do it, I don't really think much of it as I'm completely detached and out of touch with reality but now, it all sounds so downright lugubrious since it is undeniable that I'm filled with a great deal of life, but lack energy and motivation due to either A) My mental impotence B) General Laziness

It's awful really, and I believe the best thing for me to do in this case is to just quit listening to music altogether because it's just rather silly and pensive for me to keep daydreaming and escaping reality as opposed to FACING IT and making my dreams come true. Life is hard work, I'm not used to living and initiating positive actions yet.
