I talk a lot better to my diary lately.....how do you vent?

Degbeme · 70-79, M
To myself and quietly.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Rilyn Try it. 🙄
Rilyn · F
@Degbeme I got a therapist for that if I want, that I don't talk to anyway.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Rilyn 🤦‍♂️
Unfortunately i keep everything down inside and someone will try to get me to ' talk' to them. And things start just pouring out of me. Usually don't see much of them after that

@Bexsy Babe even my therapist makes me force-talk and its a whirlpool of a mess after.....so I get that well. I think my journal is still the best because I'll repeat it won't call me out on whatever I say. To hell with whoever reads it. It's a good read. I'm a good writer after all 🤭
@Rilyn maybe a journal is a good outlet. That way no sting of peoples reactions. I had started writing poems in a notebook so might just turn it into poems/slash journal since those were really my feelings anyway
I don't, I bottle it all up and slowly come undone.
@Rilyn Hence the journal?
Rilyn · F
@Mindfulness Well, at least it doesn't talk back so I don't need to worry about being called out.
Rilyn · F
@Mindfulness will you ever come back?
Come to think of it, I don’t think I do.
I just internalize everything until I become irrationally irritable
Rilyn · F
@Ghostinthemachine That's no good. Not unleashing our thoughts and feelings leads to some kind of obsession to me.
@Rilyn it’s definitely not healthy

I should write

I enjoy writing, whenever I’ve done it

I worked the other way. I try to find the answers to my question. And in the quest of these answers, I found some knowledge that made me come to a state of mind where I no more have questions or need to vent. Maybe it's spirituality, but whatever it is, it has helped me survive peacefully, with satisfaction and without any regrets.
ABCDEF7 · M
@Rilyn That can really be a good way, but do you also feel to get some of your question answered? I had problem that I needed answers to the questions in my mind.

Even if you don't achieve your goal, I believe, getting a clear understanding of your objectives, and ensuring you are on the right track is sufficient to have more satisfied and calm mindset. At least it was like that for me.
Rilyn · F
@ABCDEF7 No I don't always have answers. I just keep on seeking.

@Rilyn All the Best !!

I vent to a friend or at work to my boss.

But really, these are two of the smartest people I know and I put an unholy amount of work into learning why people do things that bother me or make me uncomfortable. Venting takes me 15 minutes and is healthy and I've done enough to learn why people act the way they do.

@twistedrope Im weary of both professions you speak of. Cant trust those within a millimeter of my life. But if it works for you. Sure.
twistedrope · 26-30, M
@Rilyn I'm sure me and you do our best.
Magenta · F
More privately or to myself. Once in a while to a sister or friend.
Rilyn · F
@Magenta I don't have siblings and my family is as useless as the word gets.
Magenta · F
@Rilyn Aw. Glad you have your diary.
Ferric67 · M
I write
Anonymously
Rilyn · F
@Ferric67 I'm an expert in that. 🔱
Ferric67 · M
@Rilyn show off
Rilyn · F
@Ferric67 Yeah what's wrong in showing off real talent? A lot here post their rubbish talent don't they? 👀

Venting to your diary is honestly healthier than to vent to people.
Rilyn · F
@Mmiker Want to bet on that? The moment you vent - boom judgement. Really terrible so the diary won't backtalk....
I've thought about keeping a journal but I don't know.🤔
Rilyn · F
@Spoiledbrat Mine dates back to five years back. My current one. Pretty interesting to see how you thought things through back then, to now.
I have to be very careful about venting. When I focus on anything, I'm emitting a vibration which attracts more of that into my life. It's a law-of-attraction thing.

If I can vent to purge something, that can be fine, so long as I get the job done and let it go. But, if I vent for the function of practicing anger regarding what I'm venting about, that's not productive.

My anger tends to build up inside 😅
Rilyn · F
@chasingThursday Get a punching bag? O.O
chasingThursday · 36-40, M
@Rilyn 👊🏻
SilentSaturn · 26-30, M
SW is my vent space/journal
Rilyn · F
@SilentSaturn Nah. Some things just cant be said.
SilentSaturn · 26-30, M
@Rilyn it's SW - bunch of randos who you likely wont ever meet.
Unlearn · 41-45, M
What if someone got hold of your diary?
Rilyn · F
@Unlearn Someday they will but by then I'll be long gone.

Rilyn · F
@BLP11520 Happy for you 🌹
I talk to the birds 🐦 🦢 🦅 💁‍♂️
Rilyn · F
@Iknowyourouttheresomewhere I talk to the wall too or the mirror? 🤣🤦‍♀️
@Rilyn I prefer talking to the refrigerator an$ what ever is inside 😅
What does the mirror say ? 🤔
JustDJ76 · 46-50, M
I play golf. It helps to get outdoors and hit something.
Lostpoet · M
I go on SW are write shit down on paper that I can throw away.
I just go for a walk or bike ride, usually helps in the worst of times
I deal with loneliness these day.

trolling helps, but not here of course. also meditation.
Rilyn · F
@pancakeslam Where do you troll? Can't care for meditation I'd rather write down all the stuff on paper.
pancakeslam · 41-45, M
@Rilyn mostly the Daily Mail. I would like to do other sites but it involves getting a new username and password.
Rilyn · F
@pancakeslam Daily Fail. Hah. Best place to troll there. It would get you extensive jailtime too XD

@SW-User I like screaming 😱
SW-User
@pancakeslam feels good
Rilyn · F
@SW-User I can't scream. Get told off for it. So I'll have to make do with journaling and a mess of therapy.
