In reply to Depression and Keeping a Journal, posted by Rhainy on August 17, 2000, at 10:05:20
Rhainy...my journal is my sanity. I have kept one for years and it is a great source of strength to me. I find that on my bad days I don't want to write either, so I just write "bad day dont feel like getting into it" or something like that, jsut so that I write and maybe a few days later Ill be able to write about what was bothering me. Even if there is nothing to write about, write that, I find that helps with getting into the habit of writing. I hope that helps!!!

I thought at first Oh Yeah just what I need something else to do...but I have been fairly good at posting at least a sentence and loggin my mood for the day or night, whenever I am writing.
