Outlook on life

How does one change their outlook on life? I’ve always been pretty pessimistic and having anxiety & depression doesn’t help matters. I want to shift my outlook, I know that it’ll take time and constant work but I wanted to know if there was anything I could do to get the ball rolling.

Don’t have access (nor money) for therapy and not willing to go on meds again, so please don’t suggest either.

Thank you :)

I had these issues also plus issues of violence. I did something unusual. I turned to God and became a Christian. Reading I learned he has everything under control he loves me forgives me and helps me when I call. It changed my life Panic attacks and thoughts of violence were gone! Sometimes I need to remind myself that he is there but he is. I am well on the road to recovery right now.
