I doubt if that works for everyone, but it's just a thought.

I agree Judy. I do the same thing. I have an online journal or two, but I just don't know what I'd do without my private paper journal. It's been so helpful to be able to be completely open and honest and not worry about who might read it. It's a great way to just get your emotions out and maybe even learn to understand them a little better.

Maybe that would be helpful for you too, Dustiey.
