Not super consistent but about ten years. I have worked things out by journaling while therapy was not useful. Journaling is powerfull

since 2004. Online, so I have all my journals.

I haven’t been great at it, but I started a couple of years ago. I very much vary in frequency.

I journal pretty much at random. I want to do it, but I struggle a lot with habit-forming (ADHD), so it’s not easy.

Never. I want to forget everything.

I was gifted one of these 5 years moomin journals by my SO and started it in January this year. I had never kept a daily log ever before. I used to write regularly but never on a fix schedule. It’s a lot of discipline and work!

2 years, but not everyday

This year only.

Short recaps of what went on through the day, places travelled to, people met etc.

Off and on since the late 90s. Mostly observational, stray thoughts, ideas for designs, or writing. Intense emotional moments are often channelled into my writing.

I have been journaling since 2019. It was born out of the need to manage my tasks and thoughts at work. But then it was helpful enough to start doing it for all the aspects of my life.

Started out with a simple notepad lying around at my office. Moved to Obsidian and now Emacs’ Org-Mode.

But I still use a nice notebook for journaling when I am not around my machine or when I want to jot something urgently. I digitise it later, if necessary.

In fact, I prefer using pen and paper over my machine (which has a very, very comfortable and enjoyable keyboard), as I find it more personal, private and deliberate.
