When I started this Journalling it was reasonably like a breath of fresh air to me bcause then I had all these feelings, and thoughts, and rabid hatred and angst that I needed to let out to just anyone. I thought I could do so freely with some communities (egroups/mailing lists) that I had joined, but that only made it worse. I got to see a different side to people online and the side I wanted which was a friend was the side least given to me. Then, I felt my sanity crumbling until I came across someone's journal on diaryland, and it opened up my eyes and mind to a venue where one's thoughts are not judged or criticized but open and free and let out, without choking up inside them.


Now that I have it I can say that the measure of my dwindling sanity at the time has been somewhat reduced by at least 20% since I got it. (it would be better if I had more friends, better hits or someone on my notify list but I am not complaining. we do not have diaries to be popular or competitive, we have them to resolve the issues inside us on the web)


But this problem of mine...still remains. Diary/journal or not.
