I have a sx journal. If I am having a bad day or big sx, I write it out on a calander type thing. it just helps me keep track should I have to report in somwhere.

I have a medical appointment book in my purse, that I write down when I go, where I go, and what happened while I was there. I have a stack of those started.

When I worked in the jail, I had a pocket calender book that i wrote which jail I was in that day, what my post or responsibilites were, and if anything out of the ordinary happened. I have a 22 year stack of those. They were admissable in court should we ever get called. simple notes it worked great.

As I grow more and more accustomed to this silly disease, and more and more comfortable with my routine, my journal is less and less filled. As the fear dies down, the writing goes with it. when the anxiety rises, so do the journal entries.

I never kept a journal or diary as a kid.
