Hello Diva,
I would suggest that you concentrate on the positive and whatever it may be that makes you feel good. When making your list, ask yourself how you can use these feelings and things to improve your everyday.

When you say think about the things I love do you mean the things I love in general or the things I love in my marriage? Because if we are talking about the things I love in my marriage atm, I am too angry to think of any. Now, if thinking about things I love in genral and making lists of them might help me deal with this, I ammore then ready to try. I am just asking for a clarification :)
Thank you for taking the time to answer me and give me great advice, it is much appreciated.

Hi Diva,
I would suggest that you must try and channel the negative thoughts into positive ones. Try making a list of all the things you love and things that make you feel happy. This may help to change your thinking pattern and help you think more positively.

Hiya!
I was wondering how to challenge a thought that is true. I mean, when I am exagerating and such I know how to challenge my thoughts. But in this situation I am actually right.
My marriage is in trouble.I can't challenge that thought as being not true, it is true. I have come to accept this. I also have come to accept that I cannot fix this alone and that as long as my husband does not put the same effort as me in this, it won't get better. Now, the problem is though, that I can't stop thinking about it and obsessing about it when the best thing I can do about it is focus on something else and take good care of myself.I want to take care of myself and graduate then reevaluate things. And who knows, by then it might get better.
In the meantime tho, I am obsessing over this. Thinking about it non-stop. I guess I just don't know what to do in this situation which is not exagerated it is real. How do I challenge my negativity in this case?
Anyway, that is my question. Thank you.

Members,
Today will be our last discussion on negative thought patterns. Over the last two weeks we have reflected on our individual negative thoughts, tracked and learned more about them and created a plan to decrease them.
Continue to focus on this topic working towards achieving your goal and keep tracking your progress. You may see improvements in some areas but not in others. Keep your plan updated and modify as you need to along the way.
If you are encountering difficulties, please feel free to ask questions.
