My journaling became a lot more reliable when I started writing on my laptop instead of in a journal. I was hesitant to do this because it didn’t have the same romantic feeling as writing in a book that people could read.
But when I started typing instead of writing by hand, I could get my thoughts out faster. I didn’t worry about planning out how I was going to say something because I could edit it. I could write pages instead of paragraphs (If I wanted to)
I know it’s not for everyone, but off handwriting is slowing you down, try typing. I really love Day One on the Mac. I’m sure there are plenty of similar apps across various platforms.
