Hello everyone

Sorry I have been quiet.... Been going trough some very hard times, personally and financially. Long story... but it all seems to be settling now.

I had my blog but twice I deleted it, I thought I was putting too much of myself into it. Is that wrong? I used to go on about my friends and stuff as well as IVA. I do miss it, it was like a type of therapy and way to organise my thoughts... What do you think?

Is it wrong to let it all out on a blog? I dont mind people knowing what is going on... I just dont want to people to think I am insane (which I am but thats between you and me!!)

Also, I just wanted to say thank you again for all your support guys, you are truly a lovely bunch of people and you have helped me so much...

So, to blog or not to blog?

Definitely blog Miak - I don't update mine as often as I should but it's good to look back over the entries and see how far we have come.

It doesn't matter what you say in it. No-one will judge you and if it helps one person then it's worth it.

Hi Miak,
If you find blogging helps to get things clearer for you then continue, but remember that blogs can be read by anyone, so if you are going to put anything too personal remember to make sure you are completely unidentifiable.
Once I was aware that I was traced via my user name I deleted my old blog and changed my user name. I am now a lot more careful about what I write and who I fb friend.

A blog is all about speaking from the heart and being honest with how you feel - don't worry what others may think !

I agree, a blog is there to help you get all thoughts out. I blogged about my darkest personal times and it helped me get through.

I read mine through and cringed in parts, but it's a true reflection of my story.

Blog away, I say!

Hi Miak. I am not a blogger, but will read others very now and then ( 'cos I am a nosey old B !), but, I'd say, if you want to blog then do so. Many on here find it therapeutic (is that spelt correctly?) and many gain strength from reading the blogs. So ... Yes ... Go for it!
