Journaling has a lot of benefits for anyone. Probably the important ones for those of us with ADD or ADHD are that it is stress relieving and it also enhances awareness. It helps us to get things that are bugging us down on paper so we can see them more clearly and can give us a little distance from them and a better perspective.
I also find it useful when I journal to read an old entry from a few years ago to remind me of what was going on then. That often reminds me that things that seem very large at the moment can turn out to have been small or even trivial in retrospect, and that things tend to work out. This too shall pass. Also I can be reminded of a helpful insight that I had discovered back then and then forgot or a coping strategy that was helping and then I forgot to keep using it.
