I was going to post an unhappy rant about general crappiness in my life, but then bitterjesus went and posted a link to this article:
Quit complaining - it may make you feel worse
Venting to friends about problems is unhelpful and unhealthy, experts say

Maybe just writing about it once is safe?

Duly noted!

Well, it wasn't really pointed at you; it's that I'm feeling so ranty lately. Though I guess it's generally good advice.

I know you weren't pointing fingers! But, you are right, it is good advice!! Although, I think in small doses, it can be a good thing.

Oh Ted, I'm sorry you feel bad (or did last week if you ever read this). I don't think it's so bad to vent to friends. I've learned .. just not too much. Occasionally is good though. It helps us feel supported and loved. You've come through for me many times just in those little ways after I vented. :)
