I’d like to start journaling. I like writing and I really need to look at my part in a recent breakup. I just have difficulty getting started

Wanting to take some accountability is a great start! If it were me I’d start with what feelings arise. Maybe that will get the flow going

Sometimes I’m just afraid of what I might see on paper, honestly. I’ve done a 4th step, but that was many years ago. I am looking for that freeing feeling though, when I can accept that I’m just human and make mistakes. Thanks for your reply

It’s not always easy looking inward but don’t beat yourself up. I think every single one of us has that fear. And the only way to beat it is forward
The choices we make make us
Now we get to do them with a sober mind focused on living and loving ourselves

I’m not gonna lie to you, I’ve been wanting to journal for years and just felt like I didn’t know how to get started. Also, there was a fear, something holding me back but I didn’t know what it was!! What worked for me was just to start typing and things just started coming naturally. After a few times of just writing how I felt, literally how I felt in that moment, I started to have an approach of dissecting those feelings and that came naturally. This week, I have journaled every morning, I never though I’d get there but it’s fun and so freeing. Sooo, just start typing, the words will start coming naturally. And don’t get discourage if you only write one paragraph, that’s how I started too.
