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.

If it’s psychological, really try to talk about it with a professional. That’s what they do. They can handle any kind of story.

If it’s legally dubious, talk to a defense attorney. You can get free legal advice from the ABA.

If it’s something from another realm, you can talk to a catholic priest anonymously behind a screen during Confession. Local times listed at USCCB.

Also, what the others said: Make art! Any kind.
