Hi Grama Herc, I notice the negative thinking was creeping back in a couple of weeks ago. I realized that it always will if I don't keep myself aware of it. It started out with small things like "Why do I have to take medications" etc. Then it moves into "You are a piece of $hit and why in the world would anyone love you" etc. At that point I knew it was time to practice the techniques I used to get it to stop in the first place.

I meditate and bring myself into the current moment.
A lot of times I argue with the negative voice as if it was a separate entity LOL. I tell it the opposite of what it is saying and that I don't have to listen to it's abusive, counter productive messages.

So far this has worked for me. So maybe you can go back to what technique you used in the first place and practice it again until the negativity leaves.

Hey She Cat, your great. Don't give up!

Hang in there
Tammy
