Hi everyone, for years i have kept a diary, i write down how i feel , the symptoms and severity, i didnt realise that other people did it as well, like now, i feel as though im struggling with the way i feel 24/7 i keep reading my own words of encouragement, in that i alwys do come out of it and i just need to hang on in there, why cant i believe my own words,my symptoms are always the same as are my negative thoughts, i suppose, but reading it in black and white is still not convincing, its a good job i have a good gp and family who constantly remind me that i will get though this and feel better, i think the electronic diary on this site is a good idea,anyone else find it helps cadge
