I have been bearing my soul on Diaryland since 2002.
I am really glad that this website is not somebody's horcrux, I would have been possessed so many times.
What I like about Diaryland is that when I write on here, I am writing in pure isolation. None of my friends in real life no about this blog (save maybe one. Hi, Jesse), and so I am able to completely open up and be as vulnerable and solipsistic and neurotic as I want to be. This is my only outlet to vent some of those feelings. And I do so freely because it does feel like my diary. It feels private.
But occasionally I get notes. They are almost always supportive and greatly encouraging. I never would have even considered a career as a writer if it wasn't for Diaryland notes I received in the early days of this blog. Now, as I am really struggling to get a handle on my depression and anxiety, I am encouraged to know that people are going through (or have survived) similar struggles and experiences. It's wonderful.
I have made some genuine friends from this site. Most of whom I have never met in person. We have found each other and are linked together purely by our love of words and the vulnerability that we wear so proudly on this site. A lot of those friends are no longer writing on here, but some of you are.
And I want you to know that I appreciate you.
I am grateful for who you are.
Keep up the good fight.
