I have a thing about keeping things I have old diaries from decades ago some are good others are bad. I'm told to get rid of them but I really struggle with this. I'm a lost cause I guess.


No one is a lost cause.

Have you ever thought that keeping all that stuff could be something holding you back ? Or suffocating you ??

Journaling has never been good for me, instead of writing and moving along I look back and beat myself up for feeling down and out 57 days ago. How will that help me in anyway ???

Maybe you need to shed your skin ( old writings and unhealthy things on your phone ) and move forward by putting as many obstacles between you and a huge mistake that would destroy your family and friends. I have many steps I must complete before I could harm myself. It’s a long list and I’m grateful it is, it’s something I could not even complete in a few days and those few days gives me lots of time to realize what a tragedy it would be.

Do you have a safety plan ?
