I Keep a Journal

It Means Nothing When Some One Reads It

Written on May 23rd, 2008

I have been keeping a journal for years now!

Its pretty much my only way to put off doing something stupid to myself. I just put anyting down on the paper at the end of each day and only then can i sleep.

but when your mum reads it... It feels like I have had all my thoughts stolen from me and now they mean absolutally nothing. Im exposed and violted.

No one was supposed to read it unless i was dead... because I knew what i had written would hurt them so much =[

    i am so sorry that happened to you. yes, it is violating. it feels like you've lost part of yourself. i hope you can get it back.

    That must have hurt. I am lucky to have not ever been invaded like that from my parents. Of course, they didn't WANT to know what i was thinking, and that helped.



    but when i met my husband, before i would marry him he had to read every one of my journals... it was a nerve wracking process, but somewhat freeing too.
