question of the day...

[droomjournal]

does the internet simply attract the mentally ill? or does it *cause* mental illness?

my money's on a 50/50 split.

I'm on the 50/50 fence as well...

A report of on journals (traditional and non-traditional) suggested people who keep them tend to have more personality issues. whether it's the self reflecting nature of journals that cause people to be aware of these issues, or whether more people like this simply keep journals is debatable.

I think it attracts everyone - then brings out those little quirks that people hide in real life - and makes them seem more mentally ill online.

For instance, you know me in person, you think I'm sane. On MSN I am a 13 year old girl.
