Part of my therapy this week is to write letters. He said that it was going to be well worth the effort. SO LAST NIGHT I wrote a couple of very painful letters, and it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders, i am hoping this is useful to someone else as well.
How to Write Your Letter
Here are some steps to get you started.
1. Find a quiet spot where you are free from distractions. Get a notebook, journal or pieces of paper and a pen.
2. Write the letter. Don’t hold back. Don’t stop what comes to your mind. This letter is for you. No one else has to see it.
3. Proper grammar, sentence structure and punctuation are not important. Don’t worry about editing your writing. Just keep going until you feel the pain subsiding and you feel as though your writing is complete. No need to go back and edit unless you want to do so.
4. If you need closure to a situation, you can destroy your writing through ripping it up or burning it. As you destroy it, let all that anger and hate go with it.
What should you write about?
Here are some ideas.

What should you write about?
Here are some ideas.
- If you have a lot of anger, pain, or grudges, write it out and let everything out. Don’t hold it inside of you anymore.
- If you have someone in your life that has caused you pain, write a letter to that person. Get it all off your chest. Then burn the letter (in a safe place outside of course).
- If you’re frustrated with your life, write down what is frustrating. Write down what you know you should be doing but you are not.
- If you believe the universe hates you, write a letter talking to it as if it’s a person. What do you really want to say?
- If you complain and whine all the time, write what you complain and whine about. What makes you upset?
- Write as if you’re talking to yourself. What would you say to get you to move on with your life? Let that person inside of you that wants to do more in life, talk to the person that’s holding you back.
