TealPhotog’s One line a day journal (thread)
I am hoping this will help me be consistent with some form of journaling. I know it will help my mental health and life in general, but I have never been able to be consistent. Maybe this will help.
T/CW: just in case. I grew up in High control, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually abusive environments. That has lead to a slew of diagnosis on top of the ADHD, dyslexia & PMDD. With that in mind, I can’t always predict what exactly my “One Line A Day” will contain.
If you made it through my above rambling I am open to comments & questions. If you see that I have not posted for the day, please feel free to comment & remind me.
With gentle Compassion,
