I often use journaling to get over a breakup or a failed talking stage. It helps me get out my emotions and also track my progress.

Instead of keeping my sad or depressed feelings bottled up or feeling like I’m annoying my friends, I like to find journal prompts for letting go of someone to help me make those final steps to get over that ex-whoever.
