I type

I type
So many words.
I delete them.

Is it self editing gone extreme?

I don't think so.
The act of typing, reading the words
Is enough.
Most of the stuff running through my mind
just needs an outlet
escape.
Not validation.
I type, I delete, backspace.
tap tap tap
All the action that those thoughts require

Enter

My therapist tells me to do that. I have yet to.

Sometimes it's really enough. Try it.

I do the same thing, but not via typing. I talk to myself while driving. I get it all out there, like I'm telling someone else, but the only one there to listen is my car. :-)

it's nice how even an imaginary impartial ear puts things in perspective.
