A solipsistic existence

[freedompass]

Not sure if this really belongs here. A friend suggested I might try writing letters to my son/whoever and not sending them. You know, as an outlet for the emotions and all. Fuck that. If there's no one who gives a shit to listen or read what I write I'll just say nothing. My life is solipsistic enough. A mind turning in on itself, writing reams of utter crap on fb is what I did for an outlet while psychotic and delusional for 5 months last year. Completely in my own world. Took days to delete it all later, cringing with embarrassment. I wrote it on fb and not an obscure blog or diary because I am in deep water 'not waving but drowning' and talking even more to myself and empty walls makes no sense at all.

Journaling, in its various forms, can be beneficial if it reveals something or is an outlet for something that needs to be expressed. It can also be harmful if it draws one into an increasing self-focus.
