Negative thoughts ..

[Paladino]

I don't think I'm alone here and I'm not 100% sure if this is the right place to put this .. but does anyone else's mind just fill up with negative thoughts when things aren't really that bad? when things are actually going pretty well in your life but your mind just putting negative thoughts in there that sometimes get you down?

All. The. Time.


You aren't alone. I think that this is something everyone goes through. You just have to take a step back and think about all the good things you have going for you, a family, friends, a roof over your head, you're still alive even.

Of course, it happens to a lot of people. With me, I think that my mind refuses to let me be happy so when I am having a good day it'll do anything to put me down and make me feel shit, but I've learnt that actually, I can make myself feel good even if I do have negative thoughts. My life is not controlled by them any more and I can pick myself back up even if that negativity happens.

This, exactly this, the trick is to not let them overtake your mind, and then your life, yes bad things have happened and do happen but it's not the end of the world and it doesn't have to ruin your day

Yes, it happens to me. It's like there's a self-destruct mechanism in my mind trying its best to take me down, and I think it's part of my mood swings. I have my ways to resist it, but only for so long. But at least I'm not losing control with it. Positive thinking works wonders!

Sometimes I do get overwhelmed thinking about the bad things in the world, but you can control just one thing really - yourself. Just do like others have said - positive thinking, even if you don't feel like it's genuine. Just repeating it will help!

It's when things are going best, that things get worse in my head sometimes.
It's like "things are going good. Too good. Something must be wrong".
