@junkartist Seeing you mentioned being a professional writer, do you mind telling me the general field you write for? I think you might find writing down negative feelings, or letters to yourself/daughter, will be a challenge, at first. But persevering, you'll look back and realize how you feel better, even in slow increments. That is where you will see the value. For me, writing has long been a part of my life. It never ceases to amaze me how 26 letters and accompanying punctuation, can be turned and twisted. Being able to and willing to take a deep look at a personal strife can be exhausting, so please be gentle on yourself. We are always here on standby to lend support!
