Being negative has a power I find I don't resist well

I guess it’s the only power I have.

Yeah, one could tie it to perfectionism.

It might feel powerful, because it makes things a self fulfilling prophecy. I used to balk at my therapist when she told me that. I eventually got through it. It takes time though.

If you want to change your outlook it starts with little corrections. You have to stop yourself before you go into a negative thought process. I suppose it’s like with eating junk food vs. healthy food. The more healthy food you eat, even if you start with one salad a day it will change your palate. If you make room for one happy fantasy or thought, it will help you to change. This works for me, because I’ve always had a wandering imagination.
