Negative thoughts

[Lindsey14]

I cant stop thinking negatively, Everytime I try to think positive my mind goes back to negative.

Yes, I understand. It's as if negative thinking becomes a habit that's hard to break. So frustrating and painful. The best advice I've gotten is to notice when my thinking is better. Then, I can build on what was going on at that time: distracted by a funny video? engaged in an activity? doing deep breathing? Hope you find relief. Wishing you the best.
