I was talking with someone about writing as a form of therapy. She is very interested but with her depression, she isn’t sure she’d have suitable topics.
I told her if she didn’t want to share it with anyone that she can write in a way that the words could mean many things. That poetry is perfect for this. I also shared my love of dark pieces. If she still wasn’t sure then-
Write it down, get it out and then watch it burn!
Your words of encouragement are amazing! You are so insightful!
Thank you. I just know how much writing has helped me.
Excellent advice to give someone that has depression… It’s cathardic to get it all out!!!
It really is!
