    Help!!! I can never seem to see the bright side! I always point out life's flaws. Anyone have tips on how to stay positive? Need help.

    Tape little inspirational quotes in your room or somewhere that you can see them easily. It sounds stupid, but sometimes it's all I need to remind me not to be so pessimistic. I also write them on my leg some days (don't ask where I get this stuff...). Again, it sounds stupid, but even though nobody else can see it, I remember that it's there.

    Well, I can't promise this one will work, but I actually recomment it all the time... Go nuts :). Literally. If something makes you angry or sad, laugh about it. Force the laugh, and when people look at you like your stupid, say the first thing that comes to mind. Even if that word is 'smelly' or 'duck'. Actually try losing your mind for a day and if you can actually do this, and convince yourself that you're happy, you'll soon find that anything will make you smile. Even the little ink blot on the floor that keeps lookin' at you. Silly ink blot. :)
