Comic journaling or day by day funnies are typically made for others to peruse. Considerably more thus, they are generally made by "specialists". Yet, imagine a scenario in which I revealed to you that you don't should be a craftsman to make entertaining funnies that can help your emotional wellness. Imagine a scenario where you simply take the stress that is making you miserable and restless and ridicule it. Terrible drawing abilities are gladly received and nobody even needs to see it!
Why Journaling?
Some time back I went over the possibility of journaling for psychological wellness. Despite the fact that there are a wide range of sorts of diaries you can make, including the one I am expounding on, most specialists or self improvement creators will encourage you to find your considerations determined to distinguish examples of negative contemplations, which you would then be able to address in treatment.
At the point when I caught wind of journaling I needed to check it out, however recording any adverse contemplations I had wanted to give them an excess of significance. Most likely these contemplations about self-uncertainty and dread don't have the right to be recorded! All things being equal, I adopted an alternate strategy: What on the off chance that I ridiculed them? Furthermore, that is the thing that I did.
I purchased a diary with pre-made squares (battling that clear page dread!). With no desire to make pleasant drawings, I just drew myself as a stick lady and a few nerves and fears zooming around me, both drawn and written in text. And afterward I began ridiculing them. To start with my humor was somewhat unrefined, yet as I had an ever increasing number of thoughts, my funnies and their humor fostered their own style. One of my top choice and shockingly thoughtful funnies is this one of every two sections:
Comic Journaling in Steps
Thus, in the event that you are at all keen on trying this strategy out, these eventual the means to follow:
The careful individual that you are, perceive the negative idea or the uneasiness that is disturbing you. This could be something as straightforward as being not able to settle on a choice on what to eat or something more genuine, such as being jobless.
Discover a logical inconsistency in this adverse idea. There is consistently one, except if you are going through a truly major issue, in which case you may avoid the comedic part of this activity. An illustration of a logical inconsistency is in the event that you definitely know the means that will take you to the arrangement of your concern, yet you are not making any move (since you are apprehensive or unmotivated to do it). You may be reluctant to begin going after positions and doing all the exploration around it (=solution), yet you really need a task.
Draw this inconsistency with stick (wo)men or some other methods! You can draw yourself acting in this conflicting manner or you can give an actual portrayal to your uneasiness. For instance, a circle with "issue" on it is presently addressing your concern (see a model with "you are fat" beneath). In any case, it will feel great to see them fighting on paper as opposed to torturing your head.
Chuckle at your comic.
Save the comic for yourself or choose to show it's anything but a couple of dear companions.
Great Side Effects
Presently, I don't make these funnies consistently, however every time I perceive a contention between my negative considerations and the target voice of reason, I draw it. There is something absolutely fulfilling about seeing these contemplations drawn and snickered at. It seems like they have been crushed by the force of humor and chuckling.
Another significant part of this activity is that it causes you to feel useful and innovative. You draw it and compose it and the comic is there: your own creation taking a gander at you. I feel we don't do what's needed of such manifestations these days any longer.
I trust this story has interested you to attempt to ridicule your internal inconsistencies. What's more, who knows whether it's anything but a craftsman inside you!
