Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it, see what our diarists are saying...

Dear Diary is unique on the internets. A soothing place for those who are looking for a less frenetic place to express their thoughts, with the added benefit of a welcoming community, should you desire it. And anonymity if that's what you prefer.

D'VorahDavida

I believe running into Dear Diary online was no accident when I was looking for a place to write my thoughts down. It was an amazing feeling and experience that was one day in 2001, nearly 25 years ago. I have been with DD ever since. I love it here.

KSmiley

DearDiary is a place where you can be your naked self, stripped from the need to fit in with the others, without the need to pretend to be someone that you aren't. To me personally, DD has become a journey to find out who I was, who I am and who I want to be...and we all know - this journey never ends...
