Mylot as a Diary / myLot

Germany

October 20, 2020 7:05am CST

Is Mylot a good diary for you? Many seem to write daily or at least several times a week what they are doing during the day - in great detail. Some write a daily poem or list their online activities and earnings. I wonder whether it would be a good idea to also do this - I often wonder whether a diary would help me to get my mind straight. It's often foggy and I am fighting depression. What do you think?

I'm sure a diary can be useful for the person who writes it. Speaking only for myself: I don't know, however, why a diary should be interesting for other people.

It is not totally a diary type but a daily journal. I think. I`m sure most of mylotters don`t tell their whole stories. It depends on some who wanted to share their whole life story here

Yes, a journal would be a better word for it.

Diaries were supposed to be private already. l think if you’re willing to share your everyday activities then this is just a fine place to put in your daily activities.

I am not so sure about myself - but many are doing it already.

It is a good idea to open up your mind here on mylot and Interact with other members that will help you get out of loneliness and feeling depressed.

Thanks for your answer. I tried it but it just wasn't working for me. I am not online here on most days of the year... I am glad that you are still here :-)

Yes, you can make it as a diary if you write her every day. My diary is only for me to read.

I might write dark thoughts in it.

Since I've just started back here after being gone for several years, I'm still trying to figure out how I want to approach the site. I have considered a somewhat diary-esque approach, but I'm not certain that really is my style these days. Too much sharing can be unwise.

You can always try it and see what happens. Depression is a tricky challenge. I have been fighting depression all my life. I have found that many things help me to stay sane such as going for long walks, listening to songs that I like and working on my spirituality among others.
