I don't think there is anything triggering the bad thoughts. I just recognise things about myself I hate. I know that the things I dislike about myself are true, and I hate that I am the person I am. Simple. I can't really tell myself that what I am hearing is wrong, because I know my voices are right.

I haven't tried comedy or music, but I usually turn to wine. Not a good choice, but it does dull what I feel.
