This is just a discussion thread because I'm very curious about other people's way of writing about themselves and collecting memories.
I've kept diaries since the age of 14 until now, so almost a decade. I suffer from CPTSD and fibromyalgia amongst other things, so not only do I have great gaps in my memory of my childhood and teen years, but I forget everything now unless I write it because I'm constantly in a brain-fog state. I also have a playlist per month, since music is one of my biggest interests and it helps me remember specific events and feelings.
I try to be as in-depth as I can when writing. My memory works in masses: I can group together extended periods of time, but I can't remember months/weeks/days by themselves. Even now, I can't remember the simplest things (appointments, dates, what I did two days ago). Also, having a sort of "ritual" around it helps with constancy. I have a favorite pen and a really nice notebook that I've used for the past two years.
Does anyone else has this habit? How do you write for yourself? I'll be reading your answers. Thank you! š«
