Who do you often turn to when you need to vent?

I would probably confide in my sister. She would keep whatever I told her to herself.

Oh I have to call a prayer line.

My Mom was the person I depended on for that too. There is just no substitute. I’d say now I kind of divide my venting. Sometimes, depending on how important it is, I’ll vent to my dad. But on a lot of occasions, I’ll depend on my best friend to really vent. I don’t let my dad see me super upset because it upsets him to see me so bothered.

probably my daughter, she is matured for her age

I typically prefer to keep my problems to myself, as I don’t want to burden anyone else. However, there’s one friend I confide in whenever we find time to catch up.

I consider my friends who I met during my college days as those that I can really trust, although we are miles apart the web has connected us.

My husband gets the brunt of it. But, I'll also use my keyboard and often is the case, mylot tends to be the target of choice.

I always write to God, in a journal but right now in my laptop specially when it is very personal. It helps, and then I read the bible to know what God think about it... It help me Big time.

My hubby

I have no one I just vent to myself,

maybe you can try journaling? like, writing down the way you feel or what made you mad/sad. that's something i do in my notes app

I have a best friend of many years that we share so much together...but when I get truly mad, which is very rare, I just work it out on my own. I try to do something I really like to do, or I go for a little walk by myself. It always seems to involve trying to get a problem worked out that I have to make a hard decision on, so I feel I need to do that on my own.

I speak to my near and dear ones. I rotate things between every person so that I do not bore one person with my calls. It has also helped me to share with people based on their convenience and availability. As everybody is running against time, such options often help us to take care of our frustrations. We should be sharing our challenges and bet out with trustworthy people. I lost my biological parents sometime ago and well so that option does not exist anymore. And of course there is God with whom we can share our pain , perhaps silently. Well, understand what you are going through . Take care!

It used to be my mother, now she's pretty stressed out on her own and I don't want to overdo. Actually, it's the other way around now. She often vents to me. I just journal, more like taking notes. Or I exercise. Or engage in creative activities. Or write a discussion here on myLot.
