Do You Feel It's Important To Always Have Somebody To Vent To?

[Nameless14]

Or do you believe it's better to leave your own problems to your own mind?

Yes, I'm a great believer in the old adage "A pleasure shared is a pleasure doubled; a trouble shared pishes two people off".

It's helpful to have someone act as a sounding board for your ideas and opinions but it's not essential for living a meaningful and fulfilling life.

So, yes it's important; but it's not absolutely necessary.

Is it better to, “... leave your own problems to your own mind?”. Not necessarily. It depends on what those 'problems' are. If those problematic thoughts are of a violent nature (ie. suicidal or murderous) then you need to speak to someone about them urgently.

Ever thought of going into therapy?
