Everyone has negative thoughts. Some easily cope with them, others focus on them all their attention. The obsession with unpleasant thoughts often develops into paranoia, which is not easy to get rid of. How do you free yourself from the negative stream of thoughts?
Instructions
Step 1
Have you ever paid attention to optimists? They are always doing well, it seems that problems bypass them. In fact, there are some sad moments in the life of positive people too, but they can appreciate the trouble from the other side. For example, you don’t like it raining all day and it’s damp and muddy. Imagine how fresh the air will be when the downpour ends.
Step 2
If you think everyone is discussing you, imagine that they admire you.
Step 3
If you are fixated on some unpleasant thought, try to distract yourself from it, for example, dance. You will begin to think about the accuracy and order of your movements, which is sure to distract you from negative thoughts.
Step 4
Everyone has periods when they do not want to do anything, all undertakings seem meaningless, negative reflections appear about negative consequences. Don't let such thoughts become obsessive, watch an inspiring video, read a motivating book.
Step 5
If negative thoughts are constantly pursuing you, you cannot do anything, it seems to you that the whole world is against you - these are signs of paranoia. Try the suggested tips, but if they don't work, seek professional help.
