I hadn't seen much good coming out of it but today I felt like I got something great out of my feelings. I wrote a short story. You wouldn't know it was really about my feelings towards my girlfriend if you didn't know my situation I don't think but I actually like it a lot.
Basically, I got something creative and unique out of a shitty emotional situation and so I recommend others to do the same. Put your feelings on paper somehow. Short stories, novels, movie scripts, poetry, something. I know it made me feel a lot better.
