I told someone

[Kimberly]

Today I told a friend that I discovered this site and it described an activity that I indulge in daily. It felt good to finally tell someone that I trusted. She seemed to be non judge mental. I doubt I will be telling everyone else any time soon.

Yesterday and today have been difficult because I am spending a lot of time online researching a public figure that is currently my main character. I am trying not to do this but it is difficult to resist. It's funny because if I read something negative about this person it is upsetting but yet I have to do it. It's so stupid, such a waste of my time but I can't stop doing it.

At least I am becoming more aware of the amount of time I spend doing this "hobby". I am making a conscious effort to stop. I try to keep busy.

I told 2 of my friends before I told my family, too. I definitely think that you should tell friends before you tell your family. Families tend to jump to conclusions. You'll have to tell them at some point, though, if you've already told someone else.
