Hey. Ummm.... "Can't be negative"? We're all positive and negative all at once, it's sort of the human condition, isn't it? I find that a bit much ofhim. You can be a bit negative without somehow being anyone else's problem. My mom taught me that. "Saying it's raining isn't being negative, when it's raining, it's a statement."

So... maybe the friend can be ignored a bit. After this year? Being negative is *normal*! Who isn't a bit negative after all this?! Just 2020, let alone anything else? HUGS of support to you.

My inner voices are currently slashing me to bits... Fat, lazy, worthless, fat, lazy, worthless ---- that's the short version! .... Basically, you aren't alone. I have to go lie down to try sleeping, but .... puma purrs to you.

thank you puma for the kind words

Keep venting, Puppy. I find that getting my uglier thoughts into words helps me to let them go and/or reframe them into something more positive and realistic. As long as the thoughts are chasing themselves around my head, they have no physical limits to contain them and will continue to escalate far beyond what reality allows.

Listening. . .

Same here, Puppy. Putting my hateful thoughts into words takes away their power. They call it "logotherapy," and the psychiatrist who taught it tested it out by surviving a concentration camp during the Holocaust.
