Why I Feel Like a Different Person When I Write

Writing feels different, like a space that reflects myself. Maybe I'm not the same person outside writing. Curiosity, creativity, thoughts, and thinking only exist while writing. Nowadays, I feel completely different from myself. Maybe it's the shift or the version that has developed over the journey- much rawer.

Writing unlocked a version of me that I can't access normally. A much more unique, curious, and creative one. Not everything I wrote feared questions and judgment. Outside writing, I stay quieter. The louder version only appears when words begin to flow. I become calmer when thoughts turn into words.

I had been observing for the past few days how a version of me switches whenever I start writing myself out. Hesitant and fearful thoughts become courageous and confident enough to be expressed through blogs. Just a topic to start with, and the magic begins. Thoughts spark and reflect themselves through phrases.

While reading previous blogs, my perspective remains focused on identifying mistakes. But when it comes to expressing myself, my voice tries to improve as much as possible. During those two to three hours, flaws remain quiet; either they increase or disappear. I don't always recognize myself after finishing a blog.

Starting to write feels like entering a different mental state. It feels like going from chaos to clarity. I focus more on reflecting than reacting during those few hours. Outside writing, many thoughts remain unfinished. They get ignored in a web of notions.

The blog listens more patiently than people. My thoughts feel louder in blogs than in my mind. The moment I stop writing, normal silence follows, and the evolved version starts fading. Maybe writing didn't create that version, it simply reflected it.

Just two selves, and the same mind. Words understand me before I understand myself.
