Starting a diary?

[sunshinedaydream]

I’m wanting to try a diary maybe, but I’m afraid of anonymity. Terrified someone who hurt me would find it. Also of someone else finding it and using it against me.

I also don’t know where to start. I’m just learning how to try this site and learn more about what is happening with me and remembering past things.

Take your time, no need to do it if you aren’t comfortable.

I’ve been very open about who I am in mine and have yet to be caught out. Granted, I know most of my family doesn’t research anything related to me. But there are plenty of people on here who are really good at anonymity, it isn’t too hard.

Putting your diary in the members area instead of the general diary area will add to your anonymity.

Following those guidelines changed my life. Seriously, I don't think I would be alive today without writing my diary and following those guidelines.
