Speaking for someone who DOES just go out and do those things, like go out with a friend, say positive things to myself, be proud of my accomplishments...yeah
it doesn't work. Maybe for normal people it might, but the whole point is we don't function like every one else so it will still piss me off if someone says that me. I do do the things they tell me and guess what, I'm still in the same spot.
