× I love singing, it's always the best way for me to release stress and be happier after I got some difficulties in my life.
✓ I love singing, it's always the best way for me to release stress and be happier after I have had some difficulties in my life.
The sentence uses 'got' which is simple past tense, but the context requires present perfect tense 'have had' to indicate experiences that affect the present. Using present perfect is appropriate when referring to life experiences that have relevance now.
× Well, I haven't learned how to sing even though I love singing and I have been singing, uh, when I was very young to my parents.
✓ Well, I haven't learned how to sing even though I love singing and I have been singing, uh, since I was very young to my parents.
The phrase 'when I was very young' should be replaced with 'since I was very young' to correctly express the duration of an action continuing from the past to the present. 'Since' is used with present perfect continuous tense to indicate the starting point of an action.
× And as I growing up, uh, as now after a long day, I often see for myself to be more relaxed.
✓ And as I am growing up, uh, now after a long day, I often sing for myself to be more relaxed.
The phrase 'as I growing up' is missing the auxiliary verb 'am' for present continuous tense. Also, 'see for myself' is incorrect; the intended verb is likely 'sing for myself'. The correction fixes verb form and word choice to convey the intended meaning.
