If not, you better get started because it apparently makes you happier. Or at least it helps you get a grip on emotionally distressing events?
If you do, do you think it makes you happier?

Quote:
Brain scans on volunteers showed that putting feelings down on paper reduces activity in a part of the brain called the amygdala, which is responsible for controlling the intensity of our emotions.
Psychologists who discovered the "Bridget Jones effect" said it worked whether people elaborated on their feelings in a diary, penned lines of poetry, or even jotted down song lyrics to express their negative emotions.
