online writing articles?
Hi everybody,
I'm a teenage girl (18). I went to the doctor yesterday about some issues going on, and they told me I had minor depression. I won't get into the details.. but they gave me medicine and also a lot of tips/ideas for me to become happier. They mentioned writing in a journal or article, in order to express my thoughts and get them out of my system. Well I don't really like the journal idea because 1. i'm scared someone will find them and I don't want people I know to see them. 2. I prefer typing rather than hand writing.
So I guess i'm asking if anyone knows a website where I can publish online articles/journals? It has to be free though. I don't want to pay anything. also, if it has an anonymous option, that would be amazing!
Oh and I'm kind of stuck on something.. I'm not sure if I want "comments" on my articles. Because I have seen some serious articles and people have commented on them saying horrible things like "go die" and "you suck".. the last thing I need right now is people to make fun of my writing and bring me down. So if there is a comment feature, please make sure that only good comments are available.
thank you!

I understand what you mean about the comments and how harsh people can be. I have this website where you can enter an article or "diary" entry type thing. I find it helps release a lot of stress and makes you feel better. This does have an feature allowing you to keep it private or you can make it public. And yes its completely free. Enjoy it nd hope the depresion goes away.

To make it clear what I've understood you to be asking:
You want a place where you can post private diary entries and various unique articles and have the ability to reject comments from outsiders? Possibly even make it so that nobody else can read them?
There are tons, I mean TONS, of free sites like this.
Anything from LiveJournal to blogspot to Xomba.
The key to anonymity? Don't reveal yourself. Choose a non-personal username. Don't provide names, locations, or details about yourself. Don't link to your Twitter or your Facebook. Don't re-use the username on other sites (where someone can Google the username and find a Facebook of yours, you know). Write anonymously ;)
LiveJournal is a site where you can certainly make everything private or public. You have control over comments being left on your page. You can block comments being left on entries, that I'm aware of. I'm not a user there, but from what I understand, it's YOUR journal. It's free (from what I understand, but you might need to pay for additional features?). www.livejournal.com
Blogspot also gives you the ability to create entries private or public. You control the comment settings as well. This one is a little less-anonymous though since it's easy to screw up and fill out their bio form. It's free. www.blogspot.com
Xomba is more article-geered rather than diary or journal entries. You can earn money if you have an Adsense account. If you use a fake username (ie: not your real name) and go with one of their default pictures then what you write is basically anonymous to readers unless you choose to reveal yourself. This site doesn't let you choose who can or cannot comment on posts though; however, Xomba is a little more "adult" than journal sites since people are there to actually WORK on news-worthy articles to make money. It's free. www.xomba.com
