Unfortunately, I too, am way too familiar with this. It's torture. I even destroyed my five previous journals by fear I had been too explicit in them, and that someone might read them someday... But in the end, I think it all comes down to anxiety, sometimes downright paranoia, or at least (after many reflections), I am sure it's the case for me.
The things that shouldn't be said, and can't be put into words are often a myriad of fears, of "what ifs" that all have a source, if you look deep enough, you can discover it. Once you know where it all comes from, it's easier to manage. You can then confront your feelings to facts and decide if it's worth losing your mind over.
Often times it's not, and most of the time there is a solution.

Maybe you should consider becoming an author. I struggle to find meaning in my life too, but I know one thing and it's that I want to write. I think it's what I must do to feel complete. You seem to have a unique point of view and maybe your purpose is to share it, and in doing so, find healing.
