- The Autobiographical Method
This is a story of your life, everyone has one & it doesn't take an author. Contrary to your belief, every one our lives can be a great movie. It is full of facts and secrets that we only know. This autobiography shall be only for you. You must secure its position and in it write all you have had. Start with your youngest years, the people you know, how any situation occurred,how you reacted to it, what were your emotional reactions, what were your thoughts,your degree of responsibility towards the situation,the secrets. Any situation where you wanted to act differently, jot down all the factors associated with it and justify your behavior. you must reasonably fight this case in your behalf and come to a conclusion. Once you have decided, your head gets clear and life easy.
eg. prob:I wished I had cracked the medical exam if only I had not fallen sick
soln:I will do it this next year - The Questionnaire Method
Jot down a list of all the life-problems you have. Then write the answers to each of them. Even if you don't know, write what you think is best solution because here you have to write an answer, don't worry sometimes when we are not sure, it is the best solution. This is a different way of approaching the first method but if you put together all the answers, you get your autobiography-kind of. - Free Association Method
This is talking out the cause of your troubles. The psychiatrist urges to talk on the problem areas like vengeance and more the person speaks, more is he cured. We sometimes have a chain of thoughts and currently stick to only the resultant of despair or frustration. Slowly when the thoughts are revealed out of our system, it already gets out.
This similar thing happens when we recite it in a poem,blog,song etc. Expression is thus very important.
