Why bother to write a blog?

I need an outlet. Need a place to control my crazy brain that won’t switch off at night, a place to get all my thoughts and feelings down onto ‘paper’. Or not paper in this case.

Everyone has things they struggle with, don’t get me wrong, i’m not trying to be a martyr and say ‘omg i’m the only one with this problem’. My hope with this is to create a place where I can collect my thoughts, process pieces of information in a cathartic way, and help my brain to understand what i’m trying to achieve.

Introducing InsideMyHead. A blog version inspired by my Instagram handle. I remember exactly where I was when I created my Instagram - 2012, sitting in the lounge of my best friend Abbey’s flat waiting for her to get ready to leave. I thought to myself, everyone’s been talking about this new app, why not get myself one, and then it asked for a handle or profile name. My real name was taken, much to my surprise, so I opted for what I believed was an arty summary of what I was planning on using Instagram for - to show what’s going on InsideMyHead.

My plan is to use this as a bit of a brain dump, accountability, diary style blog to collect my own thoughts and work through some things, and maybe, just maybe, it will resonate with or even help someone else in a similar situation.

Happy reading.
