How can I be more positive?

Question

I’ve been trying for years and it feels like I’m just getting angrier all the time. I don’t want to be an angry person - I know it’s not good for me or my husband or our son… and I know that nobody wants to be around someone super negative.
I’m trying to get therapy but the process is taking an insanely long time, and I have medication for depression/anxiety.
I just want to know if anyone has experienced the same thing, how do you stay positive?

Answer

For me it really takes focusing on God and all the promises he hs for me. Figure out whats the cause of your anger, depression, and anxiety. For me it was not feeling hope or control over things that could happen in my life. But now I turn to God and pray. I watch joel osteen as well for inspiration.
    Other things that help are looking up growth mindset, overcoming negative emotions and thinking habits, etc. You can find these on youtube. Also there are positive thinking apps… such as Affirm. I personally think the mind is like any other muscle in the body. Some of us have “weaker” muscles that we need to exercise so they become stronger. That includes being intentional daily about exercising the mind.
    There are self help books as well sold at thrift store book sections for cheap!

Answer

I used to think very negatively, I also felt very angry at the world and like you  I have had various therapy etc...which does help in time. I would say I'm 100% there but the one thing that helped me is....my being negative or angry, or letting someone elses choices dictate my reaction only effects me and how I feel....you can choose how you spend your time on this planet and I for one dont want to waste my time being angry or negative. I do still have my days but the majority are spent enjoying the little things :-) hope this helps
