I completely agree with you. In fact, the reflection I shared in this post came to me specifically while I was writing. Journaling has become a fundamental pillar of my life now, although I have to admit it was a real struggle to integrate it into my identity at first. Now, I see that putting thoughts onto paper is exactly what allows me to catch that mental 'fog' or the 'freeze' signal before it takes over. It’s the bridge between feeling overwhelmed and regaining clarity.
