After battling anxiety since childhood, author and blogger Christianna Johnson decided to pick up journaling as a way to cope.
“I found refuge in journaling,” the Gautier, Mississippi resident says. “Writing out my thoughts and understanding my feelings through pen and paper medium has done so much for my growth and personal development.”
Johnson credits journaling for allowing her to identify her anxiety and the ways it leads to physical ailments such as racing thoughts, migraines and bad stomach cramps.
