Brain dumping doesn't work well for me either. This is a great example of journaling with that comforting structure while being able to get all my thoughts out. Thanks for the suggestions!
This was so helpful. Love this so much. I have borderline personality disorder, anxiety and depression. This would benefit me so much putting this in my journal. Thank you for posting
I have struggled with anxiety since middle school and as an adult it unfortunately remains a struggle for me. I'm hoping that learning how to journal properly will help reduce my anxiety. Thank you for the journaling tips
I found this very helpful. A few of the things you mentioned, I was already doing, but others were very new and I'm going to try them out. I particularly like the idea of using affirmations and even using a page to call out cognitive distortions.
Just watching this video helped a little bit with my anxiety bc even tho I haven’t started writing anything down just thinking about the answers helped
I’ve just done my first entry in my journal with your first method and I already feel clearer. I already journaling, but specifically having a part of my journal to simply write out my feelings somehow made a difference. I always thought I wrote out my feelings, but apparently not all of them! I’ll be trying the other methods as well when I’m feeling anxious. Thank you! :)
I'm so so glad to hear it's already been helping you!! I think that before I started using these prompts every day, I would only write down the "acceptable" emotions - plus it's a lot harder to cover all your feelings when you're writing in a long-form format. Starting out with a couple bullet points has definitely helped me become more emotionally aware! I hope this continues to help you and you work out a system that's perfect for you 😊
I love this! This is so simple yet so in detail. I always had trouble journaling as I either got bored or it got too much. But this actually helps me a lot to get started and it seems fun to do for my anxiety.
Wow! This was SO helpful! I made a spread in my bujo just scribbling down all of what you said. It will be so good to have this to look at when I need to write myself out of anxiety. Thank you so much for this
I love this video! I have been journaling since I was young and only started doing it in 2019. I wanted to do some for my anxiety and this has really helped!!
This is very helpful! Downloading and printing the worksheet now to put in my journal. Will definitely be using it moving forward. Thank you for sharing and hopefully there are some more videos soon!
Thank you so much for sharing this! I've created a spread in my journal to refer back to to try to reframe my thoughts. I really appreciate you sharing your techniques with us!
Young lady you had me in the very beginning w that mug 😂 also I love these ideas I don't think I'd be able to keep up with the mood tracker consistently but the irrational thoughts one... yeah that would've saved me so much heartache🥺 thank you for the video! Super helpful! I'll bookmark this to write everything down when I have some more free time 💜
Really helpful, thanks for sharing. I have subscribed and I'll share the video too. You will have a large following very soon with these kind of insightful and helpful videos.
Thank you!! I can't believe it took me so long to see your comment but I'm just using Crayola Supertips - they're my favorite for journaling because they don't really bleed through the paper unless you draw over the same area several times, and they're super affordable 💕
why yes as a matter of fact I do!! I use Leuchtturm1917 A5 dotted notebooks. They come in a bazillion colors and they have high-quality paper AND pre-numbered pages, which I love. They're like $20 so they're a lil spency but one notebook lasts me like 6 months so I feel like it's worth it for the quality
Hi from Canada 🇨🇦 I have been dealing with stress and anxiety lately and I'm also dealing with chemo only 3 more to get done ✔ yet I am not sure of what to do regarding moving again im never happy where I move got any ideas thank you
It's this one here: a.co/d/2cwvopE Nowadays I actually recommend Archer & Olive notebooks because the paper in Leuchtturms is very thin and ink bleeds through easily. But they're still a good starter notebook!
