What's your take on journaling?

@TheProphet haha I tend to be quite secretive in nature as well since I know many people can, unfortunately, be tempted to use anything they know against you under the right circumstances. At the same time, however, sometimes a person has to explore their thoughts in order to get their emotional state in order so they can continue to move forward in life. I use to workout for hours on end to do that, but I have come to realize that I was just using that as a means of escape and I was actually avoiding my problems instead of confronting them like I should have. Now that I've seen the destruction in the wake of my past that keeping things bottled up until they eventually either get the best of me by destroying my self-esteem or making me yearn for retribution in a silly manner against those I feel wronged me has caused. I need a healthy way to sort out life's problems so I can confront them to see what their root cause is and deal with them so I never unintentionally hurt anyone or make my life more miserable than it has to be at times. Do you have another way of going about this personally or are you of the mindset that it's a waste of time and focus on other things in life?

@Jester I bwould never reveal my innermost secrets where someone would see them.

@TheProphet Understood and I respect your opinion sir! Thank you for sharing 😊
