Therapies have done a lot more for me personally than going to the ER or calling hotline or the cops when suicidal. In this post, let me teach you DBT, or how to overcome your negative thoughts and feelings with positive thinking or positive self-talk therapy. How to apply it daily, you might wonder? Here's how :
1. List on 1 column your current negative thoughts and feelings.
2. On column 2 : list off everything positive currently or in the immediate future in your life that contradicts them.
On my worksheet, it looks like this :
1. I'm useless. 1. I'm not useless, I can do fashion design, I can make nice art and crafts, nice photographies.
2. I have no purpose in life. 2. My purpose in life is jut to enjoy life to the fullest, regardless of circumstances.
3. I have nothing to live for anymore. 3. I have my meals tomorrow to live for, I have my games to look forward to.
Hope this helps you overcome your negative feelings, emotions and thoughts about your life currently too. Have you tried DBT personally too? Does it work for you personally too?
