Blogs as outlet

How many of you use their blogs as an outlet for stress? How often do you de-stress yourself by writing? DO you find it helpful to write about the things that bother you?

I don't think I can write in my blog when I am stressed. But I think I am satisfied when I have written something in my blog. I look at my blog as a way to help people here in mylot and to earn money as well. The posts I make there are really from hard work. I don't have a personal blog where I would just rant about my mishaps. I don't do things like that. I'd rather keep it to myself.

I think it depends on whether you have a personal blog or a business blog. I think mine is a mixture of the two. I don't write about my personal life but I do write about how I feel or think about my activities on the internet. Some people do use their blogs to have a rant about things that annoys them. It can help us to destress by writing about things that bother us and I think many of us do it at myLot rather than in a blog. Most people use their blogs to make money and to promote referral links, so it is better to be more businesslike and informative when writing on a money making blog.

I dont think that one writes blog to take the stress out off him/her. If a person is really stressed down, he would not feel like writing any BLOG. However, blogging is a way to keep yourself engaged in an activity when one doesnt have much to do. Another most important reason for writing blogs and havinb ablog site is financial. You can make money by making blogs!!

I don't. What's the point? WHo'd read it? WHo'd care? Why bother? Use it as a constructive device - if something is bothering you instead of complaining about it, find ways to live with it or deal with it and write about that! That way you are helping yourself as well as maybe helping others with the same problem One of my blogs is about saving money - I had to learn how to save every penny and squeeze the nickle till the buffalo pooped - just to make ends met! Now I do it to save money for those sparce times. So I write my blog to share my personal experience and ways I have used and do to save and make ends meet, hopefully it will help others to learn how. Incomes are limited these days and saving is a big deal for most everyone. These ways I talk about are tried and true - they work - and they can work for everyone - and before you know it you have a great start on savings or getting more for your money. I Just hope others read it and use my suggestions to help themselves through the hard times. That is why I do it.

Why not? I have my own blog,i don't note my situations and feelings there everyday,i think i have not so much time.But blog is helpful,almost every month,i will write a long article in the blog to express things and feelings that i got in this month,it's just a place for me to reflection,that's very necessary. Anyhow,it all depends.
