I don't trust any web site to store something that private, no matter how "password protected" it is because I don't know how secure their website really is and if they were hacked and somebody stole my journal or other sensitive data, well lets just say that some of the stuff I journal about would likely end me up in a NSA watch list LOL

Speaking of which, is journaling about your feelings, no matter how potentially negative they are really healthy? Or is there a better way to go about things?
<<is journaling about your feelings, no matter how potentially negative they are really healthy? >> This is why I started this thread. Not really sure if that's the best way, unless you bring them up with a professional to work through. Because when I journal is like taking the problem and putting it somewhere else....but the problem is still there. That make sense?
