Managing knowledge and feelings that can't be shared (lemmy.world)

If you are unable to share certain thoughts or feelings with any other human in any meaningful way, how can a person manage this in a healthy way?

Both psychologically sound and proven methods as well as personal anecdotes are welcome.

Please assume sharing is non-negotiable which precludes close friends, family, and/or professionals.

What do you think of combining this approach with simple train of thought and/or sporadic notes? Funnily enough I didn’t even think of writing on a schedule or in a structured way until you just mentioned it.

Maybe look into bullet journaling? Its not as straight forword as just writing down your thoughts. Its a more intimidating form of journaling, but in a good way. When i used that method i found that its complex format did a really good job at filtering my thoughts. Which took a lot of weight off my shoulders, allowing me to put more focus into bettering myself.
