I do this with my mental and emotional issues. Sometimes I write original fiction for the purpose, but other times I pick a pre-existing character with whom I identify (or who I want to see suffer) and channel my problems through them.

I understand why you'd feel weird, quality of writing notwithstanding. It's like showing pictures of your surgery to strangers but not telling them it's you that's being operated on.

Haha, exactly this. It isn't just identifying with a character, it's putting you where the character should be. In some cases, it works, but in the past I'd worry I wasn't really understanding the character but instead was shamelessly projecting.
