    Of course, it's not absolute, just look at how happy you used to be.

    The reason why it is said that writing a diary is easy to be depressed, I think that people will not think or have no mood to write a diary when they are particularly happy and excited, and when you have time to let your mood settle down to write a diary, most of the things that come to mind are sad, and after a long time, your diary will be less happy than sad.

    Actually, it's not, keeping a diary is sometimes a kind of psychological distraction, of course, you can't just write about depression, there are so many happy people in life, you can write it down, but when you open the diary, you will find that there are many happy times, so you won't be depressed. Remember more happy things, hehe.

    The journal is just a way for us to vent our feelings, and you just use the journal as a medium to pour out your joys, sorrows, and sorrows, just like talking to a good friend, and the journal is your good friend at this moment. Depression, many times, when you express all your feelings in the form of a journal, you will lack the feeling of confiding in your friends.

    I think writing a diary is really depressing, I have experienced, I used to like to write a diary, but most of it is sad!!

    When I wrote a diary, I felt very emotional, but after reading it, I felt that it was hypocritical, so I decided not to write a diary again. Now that I don't keep a diary, I'm much happier, after all, reality is reality, and I don't need to rely on any diary to talk about it. In fact, when you are in a bad mood, you will be in a good mood by talking to your friends or family, otherwise you will be fine in a few days, and there is no need to write sadly.

    Or write something motivating to yourself, that's what matters.

    I write a diary, all of which are sad, happy to write about boredom, a stroke of time to bring me this year 15, very cheerful during the day, but at night when I am alone, I will be more melancholy, feel sad.

    Just write a diary to pass the time and vent.

    Anyway, when you write a diary, you basically write something pessimistic, or write down love and hate.

    You don't have to be so serious, write down your thoughts, don't just write sad. That's it.

    Be yourself and don't change your habits and opinions because of what others say...

    As long as you feel happy and comfortable writing a diary, just pour out your thoughts Don't care too much, you wrote it for yourself, not for others, maybe I'm still young, and I have a one-sided point of view, and it doesn't help you, so please forgive me!

    If journaling makes you happy, it means that you won't be depressed. Nothing is absolute.

    Because people who keep a diary are usually people who don't have any friends, they write everything in their diary.

    You're too unprincipled, aren't you?

    One word can change your habits and perceptions.

    Did scientists find people who were depressed because they wrote this?

    Do you think it's more likely that they discovered it or invented it?

    Don't believe them. Scientists say that fritters have carcinogenic factors. There were a few people who hadn't eaten fritters.

    This is actually a misconception, but depressed people prefer to keep a diary. The first time I think about why I am depressed, depression must be unwilling to communicate with others, or no one to communicate, and I can't figure it out and get into a dead end. Therefore, one's thoughts and opinions can only be expressed through written records.

    In addition, their personalities are particularly special, maybe they are not good at communication, maybe they are not good at expression, so it is normal to express their hearts through words. Why is it said that "people who love to keep a diary are more likely to be depressed?" I think it's a delusion, and it still makes sense that "depressed people are more likely to keep a diary."

    I don't think that people who love to keep a diary are more likely to be depressed, because writing is to express themselves, and when emotions slowly flow to the paper with the pen, just like worries slowly flow to the paper, they are not so troubled, and they are not so depressed when they slowly form habits. In fact, many depressed people don't like to keep a diary, they like to lock themselves up and calm down. And those who are mildly depressed, or those who have come out of depression, prefer to write, which is also a delusion that "people who love to keep a diary are more likely to be depressed".

    I suddenly thought of another theory called "science men are straight men", are they all? Not necessarily, at the beginning, a group of people said this, and gave examples, everyone felt that it made sense, and then the science man carried the pot. The science man is also very wronged!

    But debate has never been a man's strong point, but when a man shows a bunch of data to a woman, the woman points to the evidence and says, "Look, look!" Straight male cancer is committed again, I'm just talking about it, why take it seriously". Yes, this pot can't be picked at all!

    I don't think it's necessarily, there's no logic, why people who love to write a diary are more likely to be depressed, on the other hand, I think people who love to write a diary may be more people who are depressed in their hearts, I don't know if this is the case, but I'm like that.

    It's ridiculous to think about it.,Before,When I was studying,I'm still a lively and cheerful teenager.,It's a lot of talking.,Love to make friends.,And then go back to exercise every day.,Go play.,Anyway, it's right to have a good time every day.,At that time, both playing QQ and Weibo.,People who follow me know that I update the dynamics almost every day.,It's to send out some things in my life to share with you.,Is it very optimistic and cheerful.,But all this changed after one thing.。

    That year I experienced a failed relationship, I was very hurt, and I was ruthlessly hurt by the other party, and after that, my personality seemed to be so cheerful and optimistic on the surface, but in fact, my heart was broken, and deep down it was like a different person, and I had a depressed mood from time to time. There is no longer any news in my Weibo and space, and I don't want to watch other people's dynamics, I still post Weibo, but all of them are only visible to myself, and the content is basically my inner monologue, I just want to vent those depressed emotions in my heart through words, but I don't want to tell others, because I don't think I should vent bad emotions to others.

    That's it, I changed from Weibo that I can only see to me, and I write it every day, it's similar to a diary, it's full of negative energy, but I won't tell others, the last time the phone was broken, I knew through the computer that I had more than a thousand notes, alas, but those have been wiped out by me with the old phone.

    Keeping a journal can soothe depression.

    As a student party at a university, keeping a diary is already a rare thing. When you are lazy, it is difficult to ask anything more of yourself. In fact, journaling is a matter of habit, and if you have a reasonable arrangement of your affairs and a clear plan for yourself, then journaling may be an essential thing.

    Just like when I was in high school, I would write my study plan every day, my daily experience, and my financial expenses today, all in detail. In this way, not only will you have a good plan for the future, but when you look through your diary in the future, you will remember that you have done so many things, and you will have a deep sense of satisfaction. Therefore, people who love to keep a diary are not more prone to depression, and it may be that in some cases, journaling is a manifestation of loneliness, and they seem to have no one to communicate with, but can only write a diary and listen to their own voice.

    In fact, keeping a diary is just a habit that has been cultivated for a long time, and it is a manifestation of your personal characteristics. People who are depressed may like to keep a diary, but it doesn't mean that people who love to keep a diary are more likely to be depressed. It depends on the content of your diary, if your diary is full of complaints about your surroundings and negative things to yourself, in this case, it may be easier to fall into the negative circle.

    If you keep a diary that is an overview of your main events of the day, plus some plans that you have summarized, then you are a positive person. So if you want to be a person who makes you fall in love with journaling but also wants to have a good attitude, you have to learn the art of journaling. I often encourage myself in my heart, so that I can learn to untie my heart knot, instead of learning to blindly complain, complain about others and complain about this society, writing a diary is actually a communication with my own heart, is a conversation between myself and the deepest part of my heart, to continue to transmit a positive energy to myself, in order to continue to motivate myself, make myself more positive.
