Have you ever kept a diary/ journal (or still keep one)?

I keep both a journal where i write random things and quotes and paste pictures or jokes i pike into and a bullet journal to help me keep in track of my life. I also keep a diary that I write in less often that is also in code because I wrote some real personal stuff in there that's hard to admit even to myself. I really enjoy writing and drawing crude little doodles so it's very fun. I looking at my older ones because usually I'm like "What the hell were thinking about you idiot lol". It helps me see how much I've grown or changed as a person in even just the past 2 years.

I used to write a lot, mostly to share if I was upset or angry. I still have diary, but nothing bad hasn't been happening in a long time, neither anything amazingly awesome. And I seem to not want to write about my smooth happy life. 😄 There is just nothing to write about. I have been writing a diary for about ten years and I still have all the books with me. It's nice to revisit them once in a while.

I have journals of my past that I would daily write in through my junior high days as well as my early years of high school - I get a good laugh and kick at where my thoughts would wander and how I expressed myself back then. I don't journal about daily events anymore, but I have a journal of quotes and inspirational sayings and feelings that I get from those around me which I like to jot down.

I have a sort of a journal/feelings dump where I pour my thoughts and feelings in a stream of consciousness, which I started a few months ago from my friend's suggestion. I also started a self help book that has certain tasks for a year to make yourself feel better about yourself and have a good year.

I do the exact same thing after a really bad year at high school I made a journal and a improvement book to better myself its honestly a ingenious way of keeping track of what you want to do in life and making goals to get there.

[HoraceNunley]

I have a journal and a improvement Pill journal that I write in to better myself and practice writing poetry or raps its helped get me through some tough times I've had them for almost 3 or 4 years writing in them as I go.

[Crashedclowd]

I started writing in a diary at the age of 11.
I am now 24 and still write in one!
I think it's a wonderful way to cope with feelings or frustrations : just write it down and let it go :)

I also think it will be cool to read them when I am older!

[anniisa]

Yep. I bought a black leather one that comes with a lock and a key. Usually it's rare to find those type of ones for adults but I found one from Paper Chase. I use it to write my feelings down when I'm angry/ or depressed. It helps me a lot. Or I write down my problems and private issues, hence why I have a lock on it.

[beyoncee]

I do. Since 2013 I've kept track of happy memories and the day they occurred so I'd never forget them. Once in a while I'll read through it, and find myself surprised at how I actually forgot those events happened, but remembering it vividly after reading the reminder.

[Chrysis]

No. I hated it whenever we had to write a travel diary or some shit like that during school trips. I always got reprimanded or even bad grades because I didn't do it or just scribbled down two half-assed sentences per day.
Other people can do whatever they want, but to me they're stupid. I don't see any benefits of doing so.

[inlovewiththesun]

I write jurnal every evening to capture the most important things that happen each day. I do it for 1 1/2 years now. Got quite an advantage if I get Alzheimer one day :)

[JJxoxo_]

I'm writing poetry diaries/journals since a couple years. Whether I'm happy, sad or angry, I do enjoy writing down all my thoughts and form them into poetry.

[Cammy137]

Yup, I've had one for 7 years. I dont update it quite as often now but it used to help deal with my emotions

[PrincessPie]

I did for around 3 years, but i gave up i wish i hadn't though, i find it hard getting into the routine.

[Chaz269]

Yeah, I often have to write down the thoughts in my head at bedtime, or I'll lie there unable to sleep because my mind is rambling.

[ariadneR]

1: EVEYDAY LIFE
2. DREAMS

[guana8ana]

I've tried, but I find it awkward to do so I never continue to do it

[PokemænStivo]

I am writing on a diary but not every day. There are different diaries with different topics 😄

[HungLikeAHorsefly]

Yeah, I keep a journal in general and a separate one for each of my hobbies.

[SweetHomicidalQueen]

I used to keep one where I’d write all my dreams but I stopped in HS

[sovetskii13]

School and media taught me that journals and diaries were girly things so I never had one.

[GracefulCharm]

Everything I write on the internet is on a journal somewhere. If you had the power to read anyone's journal, would you invade their privacy?

[pizzalovershouse]

no but I should of about foods that I have allergies to
