I've never had a written journal/diary, and all of my multiple attempts at keeping a regular blog online have failed. I'd post regularly for about a month and then it would just fall into oblivion.
I did hear on the radio the other day that apparently writing in a journal for 15 minutes a day can help extend your life for 15 years. Of course, they didn't cite a source, it's highly likely they're pulling shenanigans, but it's reasonable to think that keeping a journal has excellent theraputic benefits. Overall, I don't see any downsides to it unless it causes you stress/self-induced pressure when you think about writing in it as a task.
