Thank you so much for your thoughts. I totally agree about the snowballing effect. And definitely with the RL thing. I try the positive thoughts sometimes but it's really hard when I'm in a bad mood to deny all of that. But it does help when I can't so easily brush it aside. The bad life doesn't work so much for me because if I feel my emotional life is horrible then the fact that others are worse off doesn't help so much. But it is something to remember.

Yeah I think I'm letting some of the regrets go and I try to remember that I can't change the past and just have to work on what I can do now. When it comes to what people think, I get lost in trying to present myself a certain way so people will think what I want them to think but even that's never guarenteed to work. Staying around positive people is definitely important and that I want to continue. Thanks again, it really does help me :)
