Daily Tip about depression.
Challenge negative thinking:
Depression puts a negative spin on everything, including the way you see yourself, the situations you encounter, and your expectations for the future.
But you cant break out of this pessimistic mind frame by just thinking positive. Happy thoughts or wishful thinking wont cut it. Rather, #the_trick is to replace negative thoughts with more #balanced thoughts.
Ways to challenge negative thinking:
- Think outside yourself.
-Allow yourself to be less than perfect.
-Socialize with positive people.
-Keep a negative thought log."

@Alia2 It can alsohelp to think up some positive thoughts to replace the negative, ahead of time, because it isn't easy to just do that. For example, maybe think of a good thing that happened or if you're thinking you are worthless, plan to say to yourself, I am a valuable person.

You are right nest , the point here is :
You cant just tell a person who is having a negative thoughts to replace them with a positive "only" , it's not easy & may be they will replace with a positive thoughts they cannot achieve like " I wanna do this prefect" but if they can't do we are backing to the start.
Balanced thoughts is a positive thoughts too but more balanced & can help.
