WRITING

writing anything daily, feelings or thoughts, making lists of things to do or future plans, or just a record of how your day went. literally just write ANYTHING. So much happens in my brain on the daily that pushing it out into a physical form on paper makes me feel like i have some control, shows patterns in my behavior, helps me maintain a healthy mindset, and figure out my emotions when they’re confusing

writing happy thoughts in your journal too

i've had a hard-to-kick habit of solely using my journal as a stand-in therapist for all my sad or angry or generally upset thoughts (this does not include my academic/writing centered journal—its own separate entity). and it's been great for this. it lets me get out my frustrations before accidentally taking it out on my friends or family and allows me to work through what i'm feeling. but it's also made me associate my journal and the act of journaling with only negative experiences. when i have a really good day, i try to write about it in my journal so i can look back and see more than just the bad or hard moments in my life. i still tend to only pick up my journal when i have strong feelings, but the happy and warm feelings can be just as strong as the sad and cold ones.

Writing down happy moments

This is an easy way to keep a diary. You only have to jot down the things that make you really smile like “going down the slide at the park with Nick on the way home from the bar” or “putting on my new jammies”. Then later when you are feeling depressed you can come back and be reminded that you have been happy before.

interviewing

i am a journalist for a local zine & i get to host my first interview today, interviewing a local music venue/kava bar so insanely thrilled. adrenaline thru the roof. getting to learn about someone else, having a conversation with impressive people solely about them, being a listener. everyone should interview, even if it’s not for something published
