Navy Wife Spiral Journal
“MILITARY SPOUSE - THE HARDEST JOB IN THE NAVY.”
(Quick note: This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!)
Deployments teach you why they say this, especially if you have kids.
One thing I learned on the first deployment we went through - is that keeping a journal day to day really helped with my mental health.
I got the idea on social media one day. Some one explained that journaling doesn’t have to be something that takes lots of time, and you don’t have to write a novel. Instead, they introduced me to the idea to ask yourself some questions each day and write those down.
EACH DAY, I WOULD WRITE DOWN JUST THESE THINGS:
How am I feeling today
A quick analyzation of those feelings — why do I feel this way
What am I worried about (if anything)
Set goals for that day. What do I want to accomplish? Either mental goals or just my to do list
This really helped get me through. It simplified journaling into a way that helped me work through my feeling, set goals, and was a great coping mechanism for the complex feelings deployments can bring, especially long ones.
I created some custom wire-bound journal so you too can try out this coping mechanism.
You can decide what questions you want to ask yourself, and create a habit to help get you through. Sometimes, a daily companion to help get your thoughts down on paper is just what you need.
