  • Journaling can be used as a cheap and quick therapeutic tool. A tool to process your thoughts and feelings deeper, to rediscover yourself, and to take steps towards changing your life.
    I am a HUGE advocate for journaling and use it for myself regularly. Journaling with pen & paper has a huge impact on how we can process these thoughts and feelings within us.
    Writing is a way to grab hold of your thinking & train yourself to think a little bit slower to process those thoughts.

    I am one of those people who just doesn’t know what to write. It’s good to hear that there is a period of adjustment and that my mind will open up. That is very encouraging and give me hope to press on.

    "Pen to paper, because if your mind wanders, your hand stops writing." What a gold piece of information. 😊 Thank You

    Idk if it's weird. I'm paranoid that someone will find my journals and things that go on with me are stuff that people will definitely judge me hard for. Idk how to get this feeling off and start journaling

    Thank you for this video. It was very helpful. I am suffering from dysthymia from past 10 years and it has affected my daily functioning to some extent. I am stuck and don't have clarity. My therapist suggested me journaling and I was searching for the same on youtube. Your video really helped me. I really hope it works for me.

    Journaling is the highest cost-to-benefit ratio of anything you're going to do in trying to improve your mental health. The funniest - and even strangest, at the beginning - is how you're not really in control of what comes out. Sometimes you really are surprised about what comes out of you. One cool thing I do, while journaling - is to collect specific questions that I will answer, if "nothing comes up".

    I don’t know how I got out of the habit of journaling. For a good 7 years between the ages of 10 and 17 it was a daily ritual for me and it did help me process all the bad experiences I was having with my family and social drama at school. I came to find out recently my mother soaked many of these journals in water to obscure the writing because it revealed so much of the abuse I was going through. I’m 48 now. Of course she told me that they ended up outside in a box during a heavy rain which was complete BS because I had them tucked away in the garage for decades and coincidentally just these books got destroyed.

    I journaled about my anger and just got angrier.

    You’re the first person who has explained in detail the process of journalling and why it works. Thank you so much. I’ll definitely try it. ☺️

    does anyone have something like a journaling book that already has questions to help with writing? for therapeutic purposes of course.. My friend's dad died two months ago and she still having a bad day till now 😢

  • @anujapotdar5868

    I love writing in general and I want to start Journaling but I don't want to write down my thoughts, because my anxiety is related to my past trauma, I just don't want to write that down, because I know one day I will read it and will again feel those things. Please can you help me with what else can I pen down. I find writing therapeutic in general.
