I'm not quite sure how to use this app if I'm honest. But I've been inspired by one of the amazing people in my life to share my thoughts, not hide them in a 4$ journal from the dollar store.
The events that happened today have showed me that my thoughts are worth more than 4$, they're worth my entire wellbeing.
In this... I don't even know what you'd call it... story? Journal? Give or take.
In this "thing," I'm going to share whatever comes to mind. Whether it be poetry, creative writing, a quote, or a story. But for the introduction I wanted to tell you a little about me. Not all of it, as I do have a dark past that I most likely won't share for a while.
My name is Haylee, I'm a teenage girl in high school. I'm mostly extroverted but introverted when it comes to writing or reading. The reason I am choosing to share how I feel on here is because it is the only way I know how to not bottle up my emotions until they explode. Usually crying alone in my dark room, which happened today. I know the reason why I do this. It's the way my mind has always worked. When I was younger, at my Dads house (my parents are split), there was someone who lived there that could change the mood of the entire house instantly. Everyone would be happy, and if this person came home in a bad mood, they would make everyone in a bad mood. They'd ruin their day.
That taught me to hold in my emotions. Keep them to myself. I thought that if my day was ruined, I didn't have to ruin everyone else's by talking about what was bothering me. I still think this way.
I don't want to ruin their day.
