Blogging for therapy

A great deal of us would benefit from professional therapeutic help. I was going to see a therapist myself, but alas, I cannot afford it.

Down to it, what we need is a space, an open space, to air our grievances and woes, this is the first step in therapy. The second step, the expensive one is the personalised advice that follows.

I think, to at least have an anonymous space online with others who may (or may not relate) is a half-step there. You should have a degree of awareness whilst blogging about your woes, however. Your feelings matter, but no one but yourself truly cares about them!

I write for the relatability it may bring others, the comfort in sharing a pain or circumstance. Blogging is a transient endeavour, this too shall pass, along with the circumstances which inspired the post.

Though, as it passes, it passes slowly and painfully like sandpaper.
