Post subject:  For anyone who struggles with changing negative thoughts

Hey guys...this helped me completely change my thought patterns..I thought I'd share..I'm sure it can help anyone with similar issues

I've lived a lot of my life with depression and at times my mind would be out of control with negative thoughts which despite people telling me to be "strong" bla bla...I couldn't change them.. it's all a load of bs telling someone who is feeling like shit to think positively...to someone who is an a low state they don't even know what that fucking means..

so...

the most important thing to changing a thought isn't just saying the positive one...for e.g I'm a cool guy or whatever..

It's not possible because if you have some many negative thoughts then it's impossible for your mind to reverse them without IDENTIFYING them first...

even that might not be enough..you have to really focus on breaking it down...and catch yourself when your mind is in a negative state..

for e.g Everytime I had a negative thought I would be telling myself off in my head in a strong voice..

So..I noticed this strong voice everytime I had a negative thought and then changed it by telling myself it was irrational to tell myself off for having negative thoughts..and that I could do it in a calm voice..

From then I could change my negative thoughts because I wasn't worked up in my head..

So then everytime I had a negative thought..I am a loser.....it wasn't bad at all....because if I said that it wouldn't have any power behind it because the voice in my head wasn't pissed off..it was just chilled like...I am a loser....but then I could catch it and be like....Naa actually I'm the fucking shit or w.e

You can do this with any though during the day...

I feared death...but before my mind would be racing like....FUCK..I COULD DIE BLA BLA..

but because I'd changed my mind to say it calmly...it would be like....oh death is badd..

Then I'd say..actually death isn't that bad at all...if I die who gives a shit..I'm just living my life..

You get the idea

Thoughts welcome
