I write poetry and short stories as my form of writing down what I experience along with having a personal journal. I also draw for the things that I can not describe and feel the need to express. When I need/want to show my therapist something I will show her an outline of my journal entry which is very helpful. I find it very helpful to share some of this information to her to help her understand my situation better and I find it very therapeutic. I highly recommend journaling; it's a good coping strategy
