Hello Elise1988: I see this is your first post... so... welcome to PsychCentral... from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit. Personally I don't keep a diary. I tried it a few times many years ago. But, somehow it just never seemed to work for me. But I certainly think it would be worth a try. I think many people find keeping a diary to be very helpful. I would certainly encourage you to give it a try. Good luck with it!
