You could try to think about all the things you have going for you. Remind yourself of things you can be thankful for and remind yourself that the future is not always bad. I don't know if you're religious or not, but it shouldn't matter because this can work for anybody.
Also, take a break and do something you enjoy. It can take your mind off of negative thoughts.

make a list of every bad thought you can think of, then when you have the list on paper, write down every good thought you can think of, either beside each bad thought, or whatever.
i usually find that if i write down what is making me angry, or sad, or embarrassed, or depressed, or whatever, that i can see it from another point of view and realize that i can change how i see my life and i dont feel so bad any more.
if you have tried this already, i still suggest you write down these bad thoughts, and then when your done, rip the paper apart, or tear it up, or burn it, or throw it away. maybe you will feel better after that.
if that doesnt work, then talk to a counselor, a friend, or your parents.
no one can stop themselves from thinking of bad thoughts. its natural. just dont let those thoughts take control of your life.

Start thinking positively.Restrict your mind to positive thoughts only.Whenever a bad thought germinates,control your mind and counter it with a good one.It is not easy and takes time,but you will ultimately master it.Good Luck.

Those are the Firey Darts from satan and his Angels.
Don't dwell on them.
Learn to Fight the Good Fight of Faitlh.
You have to Fight those Evil and Wicked Angels that were kicked out of Heaven by GOD.
You use the Sword of the Spirit---the Word of GOD.
Bible Book Store should have some instructional manuals.
Put the Sword in your Mouth and Let Loose.
(Speak the Word of GOD outloud to those Angels, they'll hear and Tremble, eventually they will leave you Alone--for a while.)
Thats how Jesus fought the Devil---by Speaking Words..

I read to get rid of negative thinking, just don't finish the thought.
Cut it off.
It gets easier with time.
The same is true for negative behavour. When we catch ourselves acting negatively toward another, just stop.
It really does get easier with time.
PLUS, compensate for the negativity you get from others by
getting around more positive people. If you don't care for church,
there are community organizations, and entertainment in
your city, and some don't cost you nothing.
(Look in your local newspaper for events).

I know how you feel. A good idea is to chose friends wisely. Another is try to avoid negative surroundings. For example, bad books, movies, music and pictures.

Everybody has bad thoughts, its because we are Humons. Its satan trying to get into your mind. Just ignore it and think of something positive or concentrate on your surrondings when it happens. Ask God for strength and help to keep satan at bay. Remember God can read your thoughts and Heart but satan only has access to your mind.

lots & lots & lots of prayer. Not only you pray, but others pray for you too. And reading your Bible more often. It can be very difficult, because bad thoughts usually go hand in hand with hate, which only will destroy us. Give it all over to the Lord.
