Does blogging help you vent feelings or express yourself?
 

I think blogging helps me vent feelings. I feel that writing it down lets things out. Anger, sadness, or even happiness and love! All of these feelings can be blogged.

I think that it's healthy to blog. In the olden days people used to write in locked diaries, but now through PCs we can lock entries or even show them to friends and strangers! We can do so much to customize our blogs. Our blog looks can even express our persoality with colors and images.

What do you think of blogging?

I use it for both, mostly for venting. I've got a hard life, what can I say. :XD I have to be careful though because of the people who read my blog. If I complain about the wrong things, I can get people in trouble accordingly.

I do all sorts of things with my blog, mostly complain. But I write about my day and what's going on, feelings, venting, the works. It's a good tool to vent and figure things out. And it's a great way to keep up with your friends. It's a personal thing and a social thing for me. I share a lot of odd links with my friends through my blog. It's just an odd mix of private, personal, and social.

Oh yeah, I also post my fiction writing in my blog, as well as icons that I make, so it's definitely a creative outlet on top of it all.

I love blogging too, especially since you have that feeling that someone might read it and see it and understand...so it's like you're letting some of that emotion out and people can hear you if they choose to. Whereas a traditional diary it's something you kind of lock up and don't tend to share it with anyone else.

I love the fact the internet is a way we can have these peers who don't know you face to face, so they can't go and tell your friends or family some of the things you vent about and you don't have that strange awkwardness of letting that private information out. It's therapeutic. I mean I'm the kind of person IRL who can talk about anything with anyone, anyways buuut it is a hell of a lot easier doing it within the confines of cyberspace!

I never keep up with blogs really :/
I just vent on whoever, and I usually feel better.
It is better when you have someone to cry to face to face.

I tend to use my journal on DA for venting which tends to mean it goes months without being updated, or I just find someone around here to rant to. :XD It does help me if I don't have anyone to vent to I always feel better after I've ranted a bit online.
