Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Managing knowledge and feelings that can't be shared
1·4 days agoBoth the reasons you listed may be part of it. I will try to approach it from your perspective which can help me to force myself. I will be able to do it if I really dedicate time and attention to it.

1·4 days agoThanks, if I somehow stumble on somebody who mentions even one thing I can relate to, I’ll be sure to listen and absorb what was said.

1·4 days agoWhat 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.

1·4 days agoYes I was quite afraid, or maybe just somewhat prepared, that a healthy solution is not possible.
I guess I should note that a minimization of pain is better than nothing. So I’ll take any ideas that are healthy-adjacent at least.
Thanks, might well be something I need to look into depending on my decision.
Very good info and your comment has convinced me that fire is not the solution. I think I know what I can do instead, actually.

3·4 days agoHaha, I’m scared that if I can push myself to write on paper, I won’t be able to stop. I think a cross shredder will be a worthy investment in the long run, so I’ll have to delve into that more.

2·4 days agoThanks, I’ll work towards opening up with myself and trying something
Thanks a lot

1·4 days agoI really appreciate this idea. I’ve always thought I was no good at traditional “art” but perhaps I need to broaden my idea of what will constitute art and what can be made and kept in plain sight.
Yes. Ok well that complicates things, but I suppose a piece of string small enough may be able to dangle out of the closed door and maybe be slightly moved…

Ok, that’s a good point and something appreciated insight.

2·4 days agoYou’re right, I should try thrift stores at least. I do have a strip shredder but I would want to spend so long cutting that it wouldn’t be sustainable in my case.

4·4 days agoThank you. This is really insightful and something that I think might be a robust solution for me. I’ll research GPG more, I clearly need to.

1·4 days agoSorry my writing may not be at its best, my sleep is terrible and it affects me more than I think.
Not sure if it was posted before. Requirements would be encrypted journal entries for digital and pen/paper for cases where something needs to be truly destroyed.
I think I’ve settled on a raspberry pi and some journaling program or simply a text editor. It’s been good to brainstorm.

2·4 days agoThank you. I don’t have a cross shredder and can’t afford one right now.
Let’s assume a page count of 5 or less at a time for safety, in this case a metal can sounds like a good method.
As for chemicals, I suppose I’ll need to research this further but it’s a good idea I didn’t think of.
Appreciated.

8·4 days agoOne thing I want to try is journaling, to start.
Edit: has anyone ever tried to journal but was instinctively unable to write unrestricted? I think I just need to push through this feeling.

1·4 days agoMany thanks for your help




Thanks for your care and personal experience. I’ll say that perhaps one day I can re-examine whether this is something I can reasonably do. It’s nice to hear that it helped you.
