Thank you everyone for your thoughtful replies. Im sorry it's taken me so long to reply.
A little update: I seem to be sleeping normal again, but most days I feel depressed. I feel worthless, anxious, tired, bitter, physically sore, never hungry but always want to eat. I have a million things to do and a hundred things going on but have little energy, desire, or motivation to accomplish what I need to get done. Yet I still have little patience, tend to start arguments, get angry and short tempered over comments, and blow up in rages or crying fits. IDK what's going on right now. I've gained 20lbs, am effing crazy, and physically and mentally miserable.

I can see how it would seem embarrassing, but once the post is printed--it's printed. And once you've brought it with you, well that's done, and once you hand it to him, then there you've managed to handle it. You can explain to him that the thoughts in the post now seem alien and irrelevant to you if you want--but there they are; you've done what you need to do. You've done everything you can to help yourself.

I appreciate all the diary/journal suggestions but I appreciate this more.
I can't do journals, blogs, diaries, or agendas. I'm 30 years old and have tried, like making it an active goal try, to do these sort of things. I've tried to do it when I was on medication, stable, and heavily motivated. Unfortunately between ADHD and whatever else going on in my brain, it's not in the cards.
I'll write it down, as I've done before, but still unsure if I'll have the gumption to read it aloud
