Has anyone ever had any problems with Microsoft Word documents filling
with unreadable boxes and all of the text disappearing? My journals
are now unreadable. When I open some of the documents the pages are
filled with annoying boxes. Nothing is readable.

Any help would be welcomed.
Thanks in advance :)

Some possibilities:

1) Your documents use a font that is missing or corrupt. Try selecting the
entire document and choose another font. If the text is now readable,
reinstall the missing/corrupt font.

2) You've opened the document with the wrong setting in the 'Files of type'
list on the File > Open dialog. Eg,  you've opened the document as plain
text.
