Trauma is a difficult thing to work through on your own, and I wanted to take the first steps towards healing with this after trauma book by Therapy Notebooks. This is not a therapy replacement, but a workbook to help you reprocess and confront your trauma through writing exercises that you can complete at your own pace. There are also notes and tips from therapists spread throughout the notebook. I think this is a great way to begin your healing journey, and I will update you with my thoughts and opinions once I complete it.

This anti-anxiety journal is the best journal I've had for my anxiety. It's helpful to know that this was made by therapists, and all the information in it is super up-to-date, and it uses cognitive behavioral therapy.

You can draw in it, write down your problems for the day, and circle how you're feeling. So if you're hunting for the perfect journal for your anxiety, this one's it.

I'm not really sure where this anti-insomnia book has been all my life, but it's honestly helped me so much And I'm just in my first week. This book was made to record your sleep at night to better improve your sleep overall using cognitive Behavioral therapy or CPT. It basically just helps eliminate harmful patterns. This is me doing my sleep log right now It's an 11 question and answer entry. It asks you what time you got into bed, what time you fell asleep How long you were up in the middle of the night, what time you finally woke up, when you got out of bed, etc Then it has you track the total time in bed for the night Versus how much time you actually spent in bed or sleep Then you divide your time asleep by the time you spent in bed and that equals your sleep efficiency for the night It asks how you slept overall and if you napped or dozed during the day This is what a finished entry looks like If you struggle with insomnia like me You can get this anti-insomnia notebook on Flip for a limited time as a freebie with a purchase or for 28 US dollars

I really love journaling, but sometimes when my depression is really bad, if I journal without any sort of structure, it can just kind of make me feel worse. I can fixate on all of the stuff that is not going well. And I'm really glad that I bought this Field Guide to Depression Journal. It is full of prompts and information and different exercises, but it's designed by therapists. So it's like getting professional help while I do one of my favorite evening activities.
