I still have days I feel really down, but I look at it like this, If I were negative, I'd be down EVERY day instead of just some days.

I work with my therapist on a regular basis to reframe my distorted thought processes. To find at least neutral thoughts if not positive ones. The Daily Mood Log from "The Feeling Good" book has been the best technique.

Once I figure out what generated the negative thought, I replace it with the truth. If I can get to this point, it works.

Daily meditation, positive affirmations of where I want my life to be. It always works. Your thoughts create your future.

I have always tried to replace a negative or my stinking thinking with a positive as much as I can. I use slogans that I have learned I recall a message I may have heard from watching church on television. I may read a phrase from the bible just to move a muscle and change a thought. Positive thinking for me is a very powerful tool that can assist you. I try to evict the negative but when onc thought comes the rest start flooding in. Positive is the key to a healthy mind and a fresh start one day at a time.

I just try not to claim this thing. Pray and hope the best for our future!
