I recently destroyed some of them,which were me venting about my experiences and abuse.I have had a habit of writing short stories using my own experiences with people around me(some of them were published by some magazines and newspapers).It was really therapeutic for me.I shredded those where I wrote more directly about events and people and I donot want anybody to read them accidentally. I have also shredded an entire script that I wanted to publish.It is a novel written using my life experiences, I didn't want to publish it anymore.So it hit the shredder.
Can you just consolidate the medical history for future reference and shred the more personal writings you want to keep private?
