Iv only been here 1day and everytime i let something out, i just cry for hours. Maybe its cause iv been bottling it up and taking it out on myself for the past few years. I dont know whether its a good thing or a bad thing, but im sticking with it to see if it helps as it seems people here are worlds apart from the people in my life, but exactly the same as me, like i can be open here and not feel emvarrased or frowned upon. Iv never tried writing before in a journal etc etc so i want to try it as any help to take away the sadness would be a burden lifted from my shoulders. I dont know, im just confused. Does anyone think a journal helps?? Any replies would be greatly appreciated :(

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I'm also a big fan of crying though...in fact i'm doing it right now!!! (But not because of this post)
I find the journal helpful myself.
As for feeling like things are coming up & out, my doc says that's good... purging out the bad stuff.. which will make room for the good.
