I write because it is cheaper than therapy.

Because in a world that is all over the place, the best way to move forward is to understand yourself, and the best way to understand me is to get my thoughts out of my head without giving others the opportunity to judge them.

I am complex, I am hard to understand, I don't understand myself most of the time, I have so many thoughts and emotions that I need to express and to write it is the simplest form to do so.

The old a problem shared is a problem halved. My mind is a highway of different random thoughts, I stopped writing for years and the thoughts continued to build and ultimately self destruct. It allows me to access my own feelings and reactions, debate them in my mind, justify my responses, see others perspectives, it takes out the emotions of the situation and allows you to look at things from a more centred perspective.

I am not a chatter, I have no interest in burdenning others with my own thoughts and issues. That is a flaw of mine that I recongnise. I do have alot to say, most of which is just a load of random thoughts, random feelings and random emotions. Writing gets them out of my head and allows me to free up some space for every day living!

Writing is a personal thing, you can say what you like, what you feel and although I have just started posting on here, up until now it was for no one but myself. I can express myself better through written word. And sometimes I don't need advise, or discussion, I just need to unload my over active mind, to allow others things in.

Writing gets the weight off your shoulders, its a release, it allows you to access your own thought, second guess them and come to conclusions. Sometimes I'll start writing angry and by the end have realised..... hmmm..... maybe I am over reacting.

Simply...... it is cheaper than therapy.
