Hi. In the past I've discussed a lot of negative emotions i was feeling about myself, on life, etc. One piece of advice given was that while i felt negative and worthless that employment will help remove some of the idol and negative thought pattern. Well, I have finally gained employment after a few yrs and while i'm okay with the work itself after the 1st three weeks, my mode hasn't changed.
In fact a whole different set of negative thoughts have crepted in like "did i take the job as a form of self punishment, is this all I can do now meaning I've wasted all of my education, and must I continously spend all my money earned on bills, food, etc in order to prevent having available funding in case i more seriously thought about self harm?
For those that haven't read previous posts, yes i've seen therapists/shrinks before and hospitalized in past (depression, ptsd, schizoid, social anxiety) and yes has issues of self identity (i'm not gay) and not christian in christian region

Do you want to kill yourself? Go ahead; the universe will carry your spirit through the cosmos. Or, you could have a little patience, and you'll be dead before 2101.

Every time you have a negative thought or emotion, put a dollar in an envelope. Although this is on the "Honor System", I think it will get you in the habit of being more positive about yourself and your situation.
Buy a few gifts and visit a children's hospital, where you will meet little kids who have cancer and other deadly diseases. This will remind you that no matter how bad off you think you are, there are always many others who are worse off.

How about try some exercising. Set a reasonable goal. This gives you a motivation and see that you can follow through on something. Not only that, exercising produces "happy hormone", and a phyiscally fit person generally feel better about him/herself.
Negative feelings are normal, just do not let them overwhelm you. Practice will power. If you catch yourself stuck in a loop of negativism, tell yourself to snap out of it. Of course this is easier said then done, but with practice you get better at it. "Will Power" is a very powerful thing.

each and every each and every now and then i imagine maximum adult men are sociopaths through lady criteria. Or, in evaluation, quite autistic (no offense to human beings tormented by autism). like the guy who stated: "I many times attempt now to not get to emotional about issues, its in worry-free words a buzz kill in my recommendations." chum change into merely being honest. Empathy is more beneficial discovered than we anticipate of. Ever seen a toddler pull an animal's tail? Or snigger even as she pushes yet another youngster round, because she`s made some variety of impact and were given a reaction? i imagine an excellent variety of adult men under no circumstances develop out of that. that's more beneficial sturdy to attain traditionally male aims once you're empathetic. They get punished for it. reason they socialise themselves, with their %.-recommendations.
