View Full Version : anxiety diary
morning all.
have any of you guys kept an anxiety diary? just wondered how helpful they have been.
i have heard a lot about them from the professionals but wondered the opinion from the actual sufferers..

HIya,
Kind of! My counseller gets me to write down situations that are triggers for anxiety then to write down the feelings and fears I have. I then have to go on and write down all the alternative (rational and positive!) possibilities which ALWAYS outnumber the fears. It's really helpful for me as I think the act of writing it helps but also you can look back and re read and learn from it.
Not a diary as such but similar and highly recommended!

Hiya!
Its alright but I was told by my psychologist to only write down the positives! It's quite fun actually and its nice to look back on =)
What i've done is written down all the positives and pinned it up next to my bed so I can read it every night and morning as a nice reminder that i'm not completely useless lol.
You can write a diary with all your feelings which would be good because you are letting it out instead of holding it all back.
Hope this helps!
Take care
