Does venting lessen emotional burden???

If you are really upset or angry about something ...
does talking/writing about it help you ....

or does it increase your fear that the incident is going to be the talk of the town???




I talk to my mom about everything and it actually helps clearing my head sometimes...

I definitely find it therapeutic! - One thing that always works for me!

I was always ranting about my feelings, stress and frustration during my papa's heart surgery to my friends through PMz and mails. One thing kept me strong as women do need to just talk about it, even if the other person can't contribute in the situation physically...still you need to talk! I Never cried in front of ANYBODY except mom during the crises. But i sure felt stronger after talking to her or my friends.

I agree with QT di.... Its an Excellent Technique 👏 👍🏼...Wonder why men don't use it properly 😉 😆 🤔

I find it easier to write it down other than talk to someone. Talking makes me nervous and I can't explain my feelings well enough. So I write it down. But there is a disadvantage too...there is a risk that someone might find that piece of paper accidentally. Then? Tab kya hoga??😕

Venting is the safety valve that helps humans let off the excessive emotional pressure...even if temporarily.

My mother found some of the papers I had written once...

I stopped writing after that.. I talk to my mom or dad(preferably dad coz he listens better)...thats easier

Yea...that's what. I fear that is what will happen to me soon too.😕 But for now, I don't have any one to tell my feelings to, so I prefer to right them down instead of keeping them inside me.

But I do agree with you....in most of the cases, dads turn out to listen to us better. Moms are always yelling at us and being suspicious.😉

for me, it is imp to talk it out....as it is necessary for women to speak abt his frustations 😆 .....n it definately helps me after i hav gotten it out of my chest.....n obviously there is a fear tht it wud spread like fire if u said it to someone u dnt really trust.....so when im in a situation which bothers me thn i turn towards my family members whom i trust

ya i agree....writin helps, if it is too personal n u dnt wanna talk abt it to someone....its better to write it down.....n no thank god i dnt hav tht fear of someone actually readin my diary...almost all my sisters write diaries....n even if i find someonez diary i dnt open it.....i guess v hav tht understandin between us to actually respect each others privacy....n MNMS i wonder y men dnt need this technique 😕 ....i wonder wat they do when they are in a situation like this 😕 ....we shud get tips frm em of how to keep it inside without it, frustatin us

its works for u but it is certainly not the way to solve the problem.
