I am personally a very sensitive person. I like to talk about my problems a lot, I find it very helpful. I am curious about how many other people like to talk about their problems too. My opinion is that keeping it in or just living in denial is not very healthy. I'm not sure if people just feel selfish if they talk about their problems, or just don't feel like they have anyone to talk about it with. Of course that is just my oppinion, and I am noone to judge you for what you are comfortable with!
So my question is: Do you find it helpful to Vent or just to keep it all inside and kind of ignore it?

I talk about stupid stuff
ReplyDeletei can be very selfish when im upset and not care what i say or what i do affects people.
Its part of growing up
Everybody has secrets, so i guess i keep things inside to
I used to be one to vent.
ReplyDeleteAs of late, I am not. I think it's because
I grew apart from a lot of people I spoke with, so I just didn't have anyone to vent to.
Now, as I'm making new friends, I don't vent anything that is actually worth hearing, just a rant here and there. When I do need to vent something heartfelt, I have my best friend.
I think it's healthy, I just don't use it a whole lot anymore because I don't really feel the need to...
I don't necessarily find it selfish, if you post your problems and search for help. I think when you vent your hoping someone will have something that will help you, everyone does it at some point in time.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot to rant about and sometimes I have to actually force myself to stop venting to my friends because I catch myself in the act and find myself being selfish or annoying, but I also like listening to my friends vent, although sometimes they can go overboard and it can be annoying. I've been trying not to go overboard and do the same some of my friends do. I'm not talking about you Ashley by the way.
ReplyDeleteIm a venter! but not to just anyone. (those who i do vent to you know who you are wink wink) personally i think it can eventually be worse to bottle it up inside then explode one day. If you let a little out every once and awhile I think you get over it faster. but that's just me. I dont mind when people vent on me, i feel more trusted but also just feel bad when there is nothing i can do. Hugs are often great cures;)

ReplyDeleteI like to vent, but only to certain people about certain things. If it's something that I feel uncomfortable with talking about to even the people closest to me then I keep it bottled up. I'm not sure which is better to be honest, but everyone has their own way of handling things.
ReplyDeleteI don't often vent, but when I do, I most often do it for an audience of one... or myself.
ReplyDeleteOn the rare occasion that I vent online, I will mostly do it on blogs (like Mr. Humphrey does :P).
On the blog I use, people will frequently comment ^^, so it's nice that I can vent and receive answers.
A bit of both: I like to vent, but I'm not always good at figuring out exactly what is bothering me or exactly what I should do about it. One of my worst habits is to simply accept things that annoy me, in order to avoid confrontation; because I know I do this, my ranting often seems hypocritical -- because maybe the problem is me.
ReplyDeleteIn a sense, I avoid confrontation. Constantly. So it's also why I don't "vent" stereotypically.
ReplyDeleteI find that to be true, that alot of the time the reason I'm upset is a reason I brought upon myself
ReplyDeletejust to keep it all inside and kind of ignore it?
ReplyDeleteI find it really helpful to vent but very hard to do.
ReplyDeleteI do both but I only vent to some people about something and then other people hear my other rants. And then of course there are the few lucky ones that get to hear everything! I vent about things that are small and not very important to blow off steam about things that I'd rather not talk about but still bug me.
ReplyDeleteI like to vent but not so much so that I annoy people.
ReplyDeleteI vent a lot, but I also hide a lot. Venting is one of the most healthy things I know of!
ReplyDeleteI don't vent, but I don't know if thats the better choice.
ReplyDeletei only vent to certain people mostly though i keep it bottled up inside untill i cant take it anymore.
ReplyDeleteI vent. I have one friend that I tell everything to and it doesn't always make me feel better, but sometimes it's just better to get it off your chest.
ReplyDeleteooh DEFINITELY venting. It's so much fun and helps so much!
ReplyDeleteboth. depends on what you are venting or botling up.
ReplyDeleteits helpful to vent. But 99.9% of the time i keep it inside.
ReplyDeleteI either vent to my best friends or I keep it allll to myself.
ReplyDeletei like to vent a lot .. but only if your really my friend. but sometimes about like family things i say a few words then move on
ReplyDeletePersonally I just break any pencil that comes to hand.
ReplyDeleteI like CoCo Nuts one. But, personally, I vent because I like yelling because I'm a loud person and I don't like hitting things.
