Do you write in a journal or diary?

[WaterIsland]

And how often do you write in it? Do you have a physical journal/diary or digital? Do you want to write more frequently than you do?

If you don’t write in a journal or diary, is it something you want to do? What is preventing you from writing in a journal or diary?

Yes

No

And how often do you write in it? A couple of times a week. Not as often as I should.

Do you have a physical journal/diary or digital? I used to write in a physical paper journal, but I have moved to a digital one because I feel secure in the knowledge that it is password-protected.

Do you want to write more frequently than you do? I would ideally like to write an entry every day, but it never happens. I always seem to run out of time and keeping a journal is the least important thing on my to-do list.

I have folders for keeping bible notes and nutrition notes and dreams but I don’t keep a journal for my thoughts and feelings. I love journaling classes but they always get discontinued because people view it as poverty shaming when people with unhappy backgrounds cannot produce the same happy writings that people from happier backgrounds can.

Sorry to piss on your childhood, kiddo, but the journal/diary shit was for parents to "spy" on their kids. Back before there was no technology or social media to do it, like today.

You were conditioned to use it and keep it private. Mainly, so that your closest thoughts could be read by those who had access to it - aka your parents.

These days if you go to counselling or therapy they tell you to keep a diary too, to bring it to them how you really are.

I don't keep a personal journal but I do keep a weekly work journal that I send to my boss. It helps them justify paying me my contractor salary.

I try to journal daily with a pen and paper. Normally it is 3 to 5 times a week. I want to do it.

I write about about

• things to be grateful about to keep positive
• Write about accomplishments to keep confident
• reflect on life to help me improve
• and write out a task list for the day

No, I tried several times as a teenager, but it only lasted for some days and then I either forgot, or got busy, or lost focus because of something else.

I journal, meditate, and do cold and red light therapy daily.
