I dont think i'll ever understand how people can write so much vent angst like god isnt that fucking miserable???? When i feel negative emotions i just...feel them. I dont know why making the fun media i enjoy sad too would make me feel better. Its not like i never write darker stuff but those are all based on genuine ideas not just me forcing meowth to feel whatever im going through that week. I've only ever written one bit of writing in that vein and it doesnt even apply to me anymore lol

This stuff just seems unhealthy because i've noticed the people who write vent angst never do so occassionally. Every time you see one theres a million more to be found. It doesnt seem fun, why are you doing that to yourself??? Just feel????? I get the whole tumblr idea of 'its a coping mechanism so that invalidates all critism of it!!!' is so ingrained in a lot of people and its by no means the most distructive way to cope in the world but. Doesnt seem good. Writing takes sustained energy and sustained emotion afterall. This isnt to say all vent writing is bad there are plenty of constructive ways therapies use to get your thoughts out but if your response to a depressive episode is to write out torture porn with your comfort character then jesus christ
