Not everyone likes to journal. Writing has always been a fun, creative outlet for me, which explains how I made a career out of it. But I’ve never consciously penned down my personal thoughts or considered it as a means to organise my mind and understand my emotions.
This year was extremely challenging for me, riddled with mental turmoil and several panic-induced breakdowns sprinkled throughout the year — thank God for therapy! However, there are some really deep, ugly, dark, and painful thoughts that you cannot voice out, even to an unbiased therapist who literally gets paid to help you navigate your mind non-judgmentally. Google's Journal app, also known as Pixel Journal, helped me process those feelings, get them out of my system, and understand them better.
