I wrote a journal with activation of atomic habit.
For a week I made an atomic habit one daily.
Last week I was able to stop smoking.
Journal really works.

I keep a recovery journal and I update it nearly daily. It has been a large part of my recovery.

I journal and draw and insert photos on my phone.

It helps me to have my thoughts written down for my therapist and pdoc to know how i am doing.

I write in a daily journal that I keep
I use it to record how my mental health is doing for the day like my moods and other miscellaneous stuff in general

I used to keep paper journals, but now I use my Google Drive.

I admit to deleting them way before I should. But it helps me get stuff out. When I tried my own threads here, I think I was too much, even for a sz forum. So I type 20 pages of nonsense so it doesn’t stay pent up and make me paranoid. I often type conversations with voices, and voices talking to one another.

Yeah…

It’s a great way of keeping track of whatever projects you are working on. I kept track of wobbling off and on medication and stopping drinking.

It’s a great way to detangle my messy brain.

I would not be alive if not for writing as self therapy but I haven’t needed to for awhile.

I try to journal every day or second day, it’s good to empty my head of all the crap in there.
