      hey, journals are journals! No one should feel it's their duty to write comments. I don't anyway lol. I just write because I enjoy being expressive. Anyway, things have been drifting it seems - so what's been happening? Sounds like things have been a bit rocky. I won't have messenger for a while, so we can catch up at some other time when I move in to my own place. Just keep going, work your way up. I think you know the ropes. Speak soon

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I love my therapist, but there is only so much he can help me with. The rest has to come from me, and I seem to be unable to perform.
