Hey Goosemoose,
I had a pretty comprehensive blog that detailed my addiction, recovery and mental health. I used WordPress to host it. I kept it up for about six months but then realised I was starting to tailor the content to what I thought the readers wanted rather than it being a daily diary etc.
I got rid of it and now have a typed daily diary on my laptop. I personally find it more effective. It's private and generally the entries are a bit longer than blog posts were. And if I ever decide to start a blog in the future I can copy and paste the content over.
