It is true! I am such a negative person I always look at the bad side of things! I really should look at the good things in my life instead of the bad side! Yes I came from a dysfunctional family. Yes my dad is the root of most of my problems. Yes I still have issues. When I look at where I have been and where I am now,I am not is such a bad place! I live on my own and I am surviving! I make it work! With money I am pretty much dependent on my own. I have a good job with benefits. I have friends. I have a sense of humor! I have more confidence and self-esteem then I realize! Whatever is thrown at me I get through it! It is time to feel more positive!

It is hard for me to enjoy my success! I am trying very hard to do that! I need to continue to stop being so darn negative! Some bad habits are really hard to change! Sometimes I realize I am hard on myself but once in awhile a friend reminds me! No matter what life throws at me I will survive!

Hi blue. I am glad you were able to realize it earlier. Honestly, there are times that I think negative about myself, that I am no good in comparison wih others. But then I realized that it will do me no good thinking about that way. We should never think of ourself less. Staying positive somehow help. Have a nice day!

Part of my problem is I don't realize how bad I get! Sometimes I really realize it myself but sometimes I get a kick in the butt! If I didn't have friends I would be not where I am today! There is always work to do and I will try to continue to stay positive!

WOW!! What a huge post blue. It's wonderful that you can state your case in such a no frills manner and that you can see how great you are in the life you have made for yourself.
I've seen your negative side - often, so I'm going to be watching you from here on in and I'll be looking forward to the positive to be coming out.

you just have to live your life as you see fit not to think about other things.
just be yourself and do not think you're alone there are always some to you.
but it's nice to learn to survive on their own and be independent and autonomous.
success in the future be so.

I keep reminding myself I am not that bad off. I have been trying to look at the positive things in my life,alot! I know over the years it has taken my along time to realize and except things! I always thought I was the only one to go through things I went though or am going through! I am not and I have come along way!

When I was growing up and for a very long time as an adult I really thought I had the worst childhood ever,in history! Not even close! Yes it was crappy but I was not physically abused. Wasn't sexually abused or neglected. Life has been a challenge and I will get through every thing that comes my way!
