Missing journal post?

I'm looking for a thread I made many years ago, about 6+ years ago I had originally posted in the Pub then moved to my Journal; I cannot find it anywhere and it really disappoints me.
I've searched the forums for the post, using sentences I know were in the post and It's not showing up.
Do Journal entries get deleted? Is there anyway I can find out? I don't know what else to do to find the post; it is a really important post to me and I cannot find it.
Thanks

Ugh, that sounds frustrating. Journal posts don't expire, so we shouldn't have deleted it automatically. And we don't have mod activity logs from that far back, so I can't see a list of all the posts that were moved to your journal. I'm not aware of any incidents that would have caused it to be lost, but it sounds like you've tried the obvious things to find it. Is it possible you're misremembering some detail of the post, like it was actually a reply, not a new thread? Or it was in a different forum than the Pub or your journal?

TNK, earlier today you made a request that two of your older Pub posts be moved to your journal. One about rabbits, one about fate. I moved both of them as you requested and you should have received a confirming PM. I am seeing both of those posts currently in your journal. If you are referring a different post than those, I don't know where it could be, unless it was moved to someplace other than your journal. Maybe search by subject.

I am; The post I am referring to is a post about self discovery and the dangers of opioid addiction written in a poetic stylization. I requested those posts be moved for other reasons as I am collecting a few posts to help me write a book and needed reference material which is what originally started this issue- the post I am referring to would've been moved by a mod several years ago- I will keep looking.

It is possible; I have a ton of posts but not a ton of 'main threads' so I will continue to search and see if I can locate it; there is a copy of the post written on Microsoft word on an old CPU so worst case scenario I may be able to recover the post that way but I am just disappointed to see that it isn't there anymore; I could have sworn it was an original Journal or Pub post but it is possible I am misremembering things.
Thank you for the reply.
