I believe in positive affirmations. I use them all the time. But I think we need to be very careful with them. In some research, positive affirmations can actually cause people to feel worse. This is because they don't believe in the statements.

Example: I am loveable and wonderful.

A person who does not believe in this statement might be reminded of how he / she is quite the opposite and repeating this statement will probably make him / her feel worse. So be careful. Say only things you can believe in or you'll feel worse.
