Tips to become positive
Hi everyone! I'm Anne, 16 year old girl and depressed. I've made some progress over the years to become a bit more happy again, but in this progress I have noticed I'm very negative. I only see the negative things in life and i think it would really help my progress if I'd become more positive! Small problem: I don't know how...
please let me now ways to practice positivity if you know some! Thanks in advance!!! :)
Hey, I am glad that you're making progress with your depression! See, all the neagtive thoughts are somewhat connected to self hate and not appreciating your own self. It's the root of it. The most important thing in this case is being kind to yourself. It is particularly difficult to stay positive in the face of adversity and failure. It is easy to blame oneself, be sorry and all but it is hard to appreciated onself. You have to take the initiavtive!
I know that's gonna be hard but that's the first step! Good luck with it! 
My pms are always open if you want to talk and know about it more!

I wish you the best in your journey
@MelanieHopeMUA thank you!! I'll look it up on the internet :))
@messyXbumblebee you can message me and I can send you some :)
@MelanieHopeMUA ohh I can't send you a message! As a teen you don't seem to be able to message someone who only talks to adults.. :/
@messyXbumblebee I'm so glad you're making progress. The first step towards having a positive outlook towards life is realising that you want to. I'm happy you're moving towards happiness.
I'm not sure if this is helpful, but depression is accompanied by negative automatic thoughts that immediately see the situation in a glass-half-empty perspective. I know it's difficult, but remembering to consciously alter your thoughts and see the silver lining is most important.
I wish you the best of luck in your journey.
@PromotingWellness thank you so much! That did actually help :) I'll try my best, but I forget to do it a lot of the times and it is quite hard... but I'll definitely keep trying!
@messyXbumblebee Ah, yes. Easier said than done, of course. I completely understand. But I'm so glad you're making the effort.
Like a member in this thread I want to become more positive. So I am trying...
