Been having lots of big emotions lately because of my personal life and my job. Between therapy sessions itโs hard to manage them so Iโve been journaling when I feel overwhelmed and it has been super helpful.
iโm not consistent and really only journal when i need it or have something i really need to say and have no one to say it to. mine is super stream of consciousness and writing my thoughts down as they occur to me helps me process my emotions and thoughts. i use it a lot when iโm feeling crazy and know iโm being irrational, and it helps a lot with getting the things making me feel that way to stop bothering me.
Helps me process, remember, clarify, detangle, be human.
Iโm also grateful for the record of my (inner) life that those journals provide. I rarely go back to them and re-read, but maybe someday.
I have friends all over the place and itโs not enough to just like their shit on social media, itโs good to call every couple of months and just have a life check in.
