Keeping a Journal

[obrigada]

Does anyone find that keeping a journal helps clear their head?

So many thoughts keep swirling through my head that last night I bought a notebook and set the timer on my phone for 10 minutes and just wrote and wrote and wrote even after the alarm went off.

Definitely! Me personally I'd be much worse if I didn't. I also find it useful years later to look back on. Also, I'm always honest in my journal where as I "edit" to HCPs.

Thanks for replying Chocattack, am not sure this will be something I will look back on, just more of a place for me to put down how I am feeling and venting if that makes sense?

Perfect sense. I started writing for exactly the same reasons as you - the looking back was an unplanned bonus.
