negative thoughts

Whats rational and what is irrational.

Basically, look at what you know about the world and other people. If what you are telling yourself contradicts with that, one or both of those ideas is irrational.

Example:
If you think people should all be treated well, its irrational to think you shouldn't treat yourself well. If people should be treated well and you are a person, you should treat yourself well, too.

Rationality is a bigger idea than this, this is just the example. I was having a tough time explaining it, my mind is cloudy.

When we are depressed we look only at the dark side of our life.Just shift your gaze to look at the larger picture,there must be some redeeming factors too.This will lessen the burden of negative thoughts on your mind.

Hey,

The unconscious mind is a reservoir of feelings, thoughts, urges, and memories that are outside of our conscious awareness. Most of the contents of the unconscious mind are unacceptable or unpleasant, such as feelings of pain, anxiety, or conflict. According to Sigmund Freud, the unconscious mind continues to influence our behavior and experiences, even though we are unaware of these underlying influences.
