These thoughts create negative conditions that impede finding any possible attitude and positive thoughts, because they will create internally the necessary conditions to help you conquer your depressions.
A depressed person shouts strive to see things in a positive way to help solve problems. For this reason he or she should always remain positive and alert. Happiness is principally a mental attitude and external factors are secondary. We should always try to remain happy regardless of the adverse circumstances of the moment.
