It helps to clear my head

Too unmotivated. But have written a bit. I don't know if it really helps though!?!

when I write I don't just focus on the problem I try to look at it from other perspectives and even come up with strategies for dealing with it.

Writing definately helps you just get all the bad feelings out. I feel it brings a release.

Helps me to vent and put things into proper perspective. I have a negative journal for venting and a positive one for giving thanks and recognizing what is good in my life.

Writing is great especially when it jives with what you are feeling. If only I had the ambition to be more versed.

It does help because that way i can just write and not talk.

Works when I keep up with it.

It hasn't worked yet, I don't do it ofter

I write blogs on myspace and sometimes they help. My own personal diary only made me feel worse because I'd write really negative and dangerous things there that I would not write if I knew someone would read it.
