I probably do have anxiety. lot of

crap has happened in my life. So i built up a negative attitude towards

life. a really bad one. Ive been in

therapy on and off for 10 years. I feel like giving up. Trying to just re

direct my thoughts are useless.

positive thinking just doesnt work

and seems fake. mediation is

just useless. i go to the gym but does

not help me with anxiety. i do all my

activities but feel low. i go to work

do things outside my comfort zone.

i just feel like s**t all the time. does

not matter what i do. should i

try therapy again. it just does not

feel worth it. ive tried f*****g

everything to cure my negative

attitude and nothing works. feel like

giving up since i can never be that

happy person who actually knows

i have a chance to do some thing

good. feel like i cant help myself

and have no options

There is always hope and options.

Have you ever tried Mindfulness techniques?   It's being taught All over the world for anxiety, depression. Negative thinking, etc 

Theres a book called Mindfulness that has a white cover and a ball of tangled string on the cover. It teaches you how to manage your anxiety and negative thinking and regain your peace of mind. 

What kindof meditations did you do?

there are great meditations for anxiety and depression and sleep on you tube. My negative thoughts often creep up on me and I have way better control of them when I listen to these. The more I listen, the more control I have and the faster they go away. 

ONE thing that the book teaches is Dont react with anxiety when you have negative thoughts. It will get worse.   Instead, calmly acknowledge to yourself that you have the thoughts and then imagine them floating off and dissolving. Do this every time and eventually your mind will automatically do it. 

Never give up. Life is worth living. 🌸🌸🌸

Hi , Im sorry that you going thru this. Some therapists can be useless, I know causeI had few and the did nowt. My anxiety and intrusive thoughts are horrible as Im in middle of changing medications. Today Im feeling little bit better compare to how I felt few days ago. Maybe medications are helping. But I dont give up cause It has to get better. We havent always felt like this so it has to get better. Dont give up, we can all beat anxiety and get thru this xxx

It is really hard to have positive thinking. There is nothing worse I think when you are trying to be positive. I am a lot of medication but find mindfulness is quite good. I try relaxing breaths to try and calm me down especially if I have a lot of stress in my life.

I have found taking a day at a time helps.

I think everyone wants to be happy, I do. I would go back to your doctor and tell him how you are feeling. If you had 10 therapists, that is quite a lot. I do hope you find a therapist who will help with this. You are not alone but only people who have experienced this know what you are going through.
