When I started this journal I knew that I didn't want any feedback.
After making last night's entry I came to remember/realize why I don't want feedback and also why the "I'm not ready for replies" statement hit the nail on the head.
Earlier this year, I'd say roughly 6 months or so ago, I quit social media. I deleted all of my profiles and have been living social media free ever since. One of my key reasons for quitting social media was to escape the constant internal struggle to......check. Check for a like. Check for a comment. Check for notifications. Check, check, check,check, check!
My first attempt at journaling on this forum plunged me back into that constant internal struggle to......check (for replies).
I don't want that struggle. I'm not ready to manage that struggle.
