Keeping a Journal, Blog, etc.

I decided to take a page from Debaser's book, so to speak, and keep an online blog. It's strange how you'll start thinking of all sorts of stuff to write about and it's not all necessarily negative things either! I've found it quite therapeutic and most of it is benign sort of things I talk about. It's fun and can get your mind off of your troubles for a while and that's a positive thing for sure! So now I can personally recommend it. Whether you do a public blog like mine (You can set it to private) or just write down your thoughts in a diary, journal, or notebook, I really believe you'll find some benefit from it and it sure don't hurt to give it a try! If you don't enjoy it, then you can stop, but if you like it, you have another tool to help you deal with whatever you must!

Take care and best to all!

Kudos to both of you.  I think your both wise and wonderful for using this form of putting your thoughts down in a journal and/or blog. I would love to hear from others that have a blog or journal and know if you feel it helps you.

You guys are the best :)

Basically a space for me to express myself, vent my anger, share my happiness or pen down my sadness and thoughts.

It's also where I keep my friends updated, for those who read my blog.

Blogging is part of my daily routine. :D

Hi.  I keep a journal and write it in everyday, even if I am shaking like a leaf from anxiety (and yes, I really do shake like a leaf sometimes-good thing I am not a surgeon....lol.) and I bring it with me when I see my doctor. That way he can see what days I am doing okay and when I am not.  He looks for trends.

I think it's a great idea to keep a journal or blog.
