I have always had to write out my feelings, because if I don't, I slowly start to feel like I am going criminally insane. My brain naturally goes a million miles a minute, my ADD and GAD (General Anxiety Disorder) being excluded from the equation. I am constantly thinking, which can occasionally be a very dangerous pastime for me, because I overthink literally anything and everything.
This is my way of letting go of years-old grudges. My way of self-therapy. My way for closure. My way of successfully explaining why I am the way I am. My way of having a better understanding of myself. My way of understanding situations from all perspectives.
Most importantly, it's my way of healing, mentally and emotionally.
