I Write As a Form of Therapy Stories of Experiences

I feel like I've just woke up from a long, deep sleep. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm really awake or still just in a delerious dream-like state of mind. I want to beleive that things aren't as they seem. That I'm not stranded in this...

I have never been good with words; talking to people has never been my forte. I guess you could say I am socially awkward (that’s probably an understatement). In order to keep these thoughts and feelings from manifesting inside my...

I write just to get things off my sexy but hairy chest as well as come here to vent a little bit about my awesome life. But I also write just to clear the thoughts in my head and express what I feel about things as well as share my life...

Letter writing-by hand-is a precious pastime for me. At times of great loneliness, I found comfort writing letters to Grandpa, to my friend, Margie, and a few others through the years. I am not currently writing to anyone. Perhaps I...

I notice that so much of my poetry reflects the grief I have experienced after the death of my daughter, and with the undeniable dementia that plagues my mom. Writing helps me get things out. If I swallowed so much sorrow, it would...

A problem though has been quickly forming with this. While this is supposed to be a supportive place for people to share their experiences, some use this site to find people they don't agree with and call them names and tell them they...

Sometimes, it's just an uphill battle all the way, and needless to say these last 2 weeks have been a doozie...lol. Outside of an abusive husband, I also have a medical problem that is known as acute/severe rheumatoid arthritis that...

Told me he couldn’t remember the
Last time he cried
Much had to be released.
I said
It’s okay, really
You’ll feel better. It’ll get better. You’re doing your best.
Having had clutter to clear,
In Silence we parted.
It took...

Writing has saved me when nothing else could. When I felt lost, betrayed, broken, alone, forgotten, helpless, invisible; when I felt the end was nigh and there was no reason worth living. When I feel so happy I can barely contain it...

This is a poem I wrote about how I feel right now. I just feel like I am trying so hard and it makes no difference. :(
Sometimes I hate myself for being diverse,
Everything you want, I am the reverse.
I am not the same, I am not nice

I decided to join this site days ago. My goal was to write all those feelings of my chest. And i am writing and writing. But the problem is that English is a foreign language for me. Sometimes i try to express emotion within my writing...

My story.
Opening the tabs of my mind.
The child survives
the monster,
the pump house,
the closet,
the bathtub,
the screaming,
the fear, the fear, the fear.
Be still.

You don't have to hurt.
You can...

Words are expensive in sense they don't add up, words are offensive. Who am I to hang up, this on call shift when your voice is incentive. Listening to you chatter over the matter is like I had her over me. Under me so wonderfully now I...

It is my life. I will do what I want and live it the way that I like.I choose to be focused and determined today. I have goals that I want to accomplish. I have dreams that I want to see fulfilled. I will not give up on myself.I deserve...

“No reflection was to be allowed now, not one glance was to be cast back; not even one forward. Not one thought was to be given either to the past or the future.The first was a page so heavenly sweet, so deadly sad, that to read one...

It's been eight years...yeah, and the earlier years were blissful. I was always the one who made surprises. Being the romantic one, I made sure that we must be well spent all through the night to mark another year of sharing life...
