What is Reddit's opinion of Penzu?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Why not use an online journal like Penzu? You can put anything you like there, and nobody else can view what you write. You can also try Google Spreadsheets and make a table you can mark off. If you want to reward/penalize yourself for multiple daily (or other) activities without having an actual log, you might like Habitica, which lets you reward yourself for your accomplishments and/or penalize yourself for bad habits. Or, if you'd like to track one specific habit, check out /r/theXeffect.

Might give this a try: https://www.safenotes.org/

or Penzu.com. Make sure you log out.

You could also write in your regular diary, "Dear diary, Mom can't be trusted. I've moved my real diary to a more secure location." Then enjoy watching her quietly searching for the non-existent diary. :)

Maybe just not write anything until you leave home. Or leave your diary at work. Or leave it in your locker at school.

......

I guess God must be a real moron if he takes away people's success for not kissing his butt. I thought he was suppose to be 'Love'. :) Why would your parents worship such a nasty being?

virtual hugs to you OP!!

It’s good that you don’t keep your feelings bottled up inside. You really have to let them out. Have you tried keeping a journal? Penzu is great and it’s online! I always found writing to be comforting.

Yeah falling in love with the wrong person sucks talaga.. it may feel like you’ll never be able to move on but i believe that in time, it will hurt less.

Rereading my past entries sa Penzu and ngayon nagccringe nalang ako hahaha. It’s comforting to read din kasi from the position I’m in now, I can happily say na it doesn’t hurt anymore. Hope u can give it a shot!

It’s a cliché, pero time heals all wounds. Makakabangon ka rin uli :”)

Pisao sam pre par godina na Penzu skoro svakodnevno. Mnogo mi je krivo što sam prestao jer generalno imam baš slabo pamćenje, mnogo zaboravljam pa sam bukvalno pisao dešavanja u toku dana/sedmice, ili neke moje misli, razmišljanja. A nekad ti dođe i kao izduvni ventil da baciš teret sa sebe. S druge strane, vežbaš pisanje, izražavanje.

Evo opet po ko zna koji put kažem sebi da ću početi opet da kucam...

EDIT: Upravo otvorih Penzu, pročitao jednu situaciju od pre 2 god i počeo da se smejem. Ovo sam naravno zaboravio i da nisam zapisao ostalo bi zaboravljeno.

Cara, eu tenho esse hábito de escrever um diário, mas eu uso um app chamado Penzu. É muito bom e da para organizar legal. Eu não gosto de ficar compartilhando o que e escrevo, e prefiro mais usar como um desabafo do que passo e relato do meu dia.
Se tiver interesse dê uma olhada lá

I use Penzu to journal. My story is similar. After a particularly nasty episode, I started Googling and learned about personality disorders. My SO is undiagnosed but she still has many of the behaviors.

She will suddenly become mad, sad, quiet, seething, anxious, demeaning, defeatist, etc. I used to follow her around asking what was wrong. She would deny there was a problem. I would ask if I was the cause. I would pester her to talk in the mistaken belief we could rationally solve any problem. I usually got one of two reactions. The first reaction would be to accuse me of being self centered and making it about me. Of course that was nonsense. I just wanted to make her happy. In the sense I want to live in a peaceful, loving, emotionally satisfying relationship, I guess i am self centered. The second reaction would be an explosion about some transgression I had unknowingly committed. I would of course grovel and she would "be the bigger person" and forgive me. My grievances, when I dared to mention them, would be dismissed or turned against me. Occasionally, she would not be able to squirm out of all the blame. In those instances, I would get a manipulative apology. It would be designed to make me feel guilty or sorry for her. It was never real contrition.

Since learning about personality disorders, I don't try to figure out why anymore. I'm exhausted. We have 3 children under 12. She has stared to pull her antics on them. I try to protect them and help them understand it's not their fault mom is in a foul mood.

Am I happier? Not really. I have been shut out. I'm just the guy who lives with her, helps with the chores and the kids, handles all the stuff she can't, and pays the bills. She never touches me like she loves me. I don't feel an emotional connection anymore.

How do I keep the peace? I rarely say no. When she starts to escalate, I gently agree and stay calm. If all else fails, I leave. Good luck.

Have you tried writing a diary of your dreams? I’m sure that writing it all down may lead you to some insights you haven’t noticed so far. And, you say you’re dominant kind of person and you can’t see the link between your dominance (in reality) and your helplessness (in dreams), but maybe the link is that you’re afraid of losing your dominance. I don’t know anything about you, but have you always been dominant? Or did you have to work on achieving that? If you had to work on it, your dreams can for sure indicate that you’re just afraid of losing everything you’ve worked on. I don’t know, I’m just guessing. And, if it’s not that, you just might be going through some tough period and have a lot on your mind. In that case, I would suggest that you try to relax and focus on something nice before going to bed. Find a reason to wake up happy tomorrow and try to keep that in your mind before falling asleep, rather than to worry about how you’re going to have a bad dream again. And, if you find it difficult, you can always go with some relaxation music, audio books, meditation and stuff like that.

Sorry to hear about that OP. Dreams can be difficult to remove from our heads. But there are things you can do..

I think that since you have all these things that you are blocking, it would be best to write everything down. Just vent. Vent into an online private journal like Penzu https://penzu.com/ or as a draft in gmail. Just write everything down when it comes up. You are repressing yourself, causing yourself pain by holding everything back. Let it flow out of you.

As for your dreams, you have to put something else in your subconscious. Is there anything else that you are passionate about? Work? School? A sport? Dive into that. Get into "the zone" with a sport or a hobby. Try something completely different from what you usually do. Go do that thing until you are in "the zone". It will alter your neural pathways and redirect your focus in the long run.

Before you go to bed, think about something else. Listen to an audiobook, where you are listening to a completely different story. You can Youtube audiobooks like the martian, or whatever you think you might be interested in. Put some lavender by your bed-it is relaxing and will cause a different reaction in your brain. Rearrange your bed's direction in the house. Switch up your sleep routine.

tl:dr Switch up your life routine. Alter your patterns to make new ones that your brain will have to focus on.

I keep a journal in a physical notebook for certain topics. I also use penzu post for more daily writing. The website will ping you via email with prompts if you like. I have fallen off on using it, but there was a time when I wrote several times a week.

Writing is incredibly helpful for me in work and in my personal life. If I am grappling with a problem or a concept, writing will ALWAYS help me gain new insights or find new directions to pursue. Getting concepts out of my head is always a useful exercise that yields fruit. I also have a weird quirk: For some reason, I can never ever start writing manuscripts or grant proposals with a blank document on my laptop. The only way I can ever get started is by using pencil and paper.

I want to say that I'm proud of you for realizing that weed might not be the answer. It took me a long ass time to realize it after I used it to self-medicate for years.

Have you done DBT? That was what made me realize smoking wasn't doing me any favors. For me, the most helpful things to do when I'm ruminating is:

• I use a private online journal (Penzu.com)
• I write down EVERYTHING. I write down how I feel, where I feel it (physically), and why I think I'm feeling the individual feelings. Essentially being mindful of the entire situation.
• I check the facts on what I wrote down.
• If its something I have the ability to change, I try to come up with a plan on how to make this change. If its not, I try to just 'accept' what I'm thinking and remind myself that I've been here before and gotten out of it. If accepting doesn't work, I distract myself. like REALLY distract. Playing phone games, scrolling on my phone - that doesn't work. It needs to be something I get lost in.

I hope this helps.

No, he is not sober. Only 5% of porn addicts can make it short term quitting cold turkey with no support. Trust me that he isn't that strong and your not that lucky.

Here are the symptom's of the addiction. Pick out the ones that you have seen in your husband over the past 18 years. If you see any present now or you see them come and go, then you know he isn't sober. This is the best way to track his sobriety.

• Symptoms of Porn Addiction: Link

Most use an encrypted journal to track the addiction, and general goings on the life of an addicts family. This is important because of the lieing, gaslighting and manipulation we experience, we do not live in reality. Penzu

Once we see our lives day after day on paper, it becomes obvious the addicts behaviors are not normal and we have been groomed to accommodate their addiction.

I generally journal to process whatever stress I'm feeling. The online journal at Penzu is a good resource you can use on a computer or their app also syncs up with it. I feel like it's a constructive way to vent my feelings.

You need to think long term rather than short term. $20 per week put aside in a hidden fund is $400 in 5 months. That is your consultation money for a good attorney.

You make the appointment. You call out sick and you go. You do it for yourself and your daughter.

For the next 5 months while you save, you can research, plan, and document.

• Research divorce in NJ in your specific situation. Not just here on reddit but in other forums as well. Men's Divorce forum is good for advice in NJ though some of the members there are pretty militant in their approach.

• Plan how you are going to live, budget, and care for a 2 year old when you leave.

• Document in detail everything you do every day for your child in an online journal. My site was Penzu.com It has a great interface, it's free, and it's password protected.

You need a track record to have a shot at even 50/50 custody. You need a financial plan to afford it, and you need solid legal advice to make this plan happen.

You may find you need to wait until your baby is 3 or even 5 years old to have a work/school situation where you can manage custody. Knowledge is power though so find out and plan from there.

Hey man, you'll find a lot of people in here that are more than willing to talk with you - if you feel the need too posting on here to just vent is more than keeping it bottled up. If you don't feel like listening to the things that people are going to want to say, tag it as Venting, and chances are that no one will comment. However if you want to try something different, there's an online Journal called Penzu, check it out - it's free.

I'm sorry you are going through this. As if raising infants isn't difficult enough?

I would suggest starting by writing a journal, Penzu is the one that I happen to use. This way during those times when he 'is lonely' and wants to go back, you can read back to remind yourself and make an informed decision.

He keeps coming back because you are letting him.

I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for but you can set up a free blog on wordpress.com and keep it private https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/ Alternatively, there's this - https://penzu.com/ although I haven't used it yet so can't offer advice on how useful it is, but it seemed geared towards privacy.

Great subreddit! In case you want to do this but don't have an Android device and don't want to share, try Penzu or another journaling website.

I've been doing this for a week or so, and I like that the extra space encourages me to write about other things on my mind besides my three points.

I use Penzu and just write about once every two weeks or so. Nothing structured, sometimes a story, state of being address, etc. Mine has about 20 entries and I like going back to read them.

Thanks so much!

My blog is currently public, but I know you can create a private blog using http://www.wordpress.com

Here is an online journaling site. I have never used it, but it looks interesting: - https://penzu.com

Hope this helps. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
