My Mood:
Think of good things and the people around you that love you, think positive do not surround yourself with people who are too negative or critical, often they are jealous of you anyway and try to bring you down.

Think nice thoughts

I think you've just took your first step by actually asking for help

Hi bettyboo
List all your good points.For example.Are you a good listner?Loyal friend?Trustworthy.Sometimes we may let a few bad points get us down,when we are brimming with good points that we so take for granted we don't even count them.

Are you shy?Most people are to some extent and it is how we overcome our shyness that makes us seem confident.I am shy,but I have been able to overcome it and entertain people on stage most nights.

If there is something specifically getting you down maybe ask a close friend for a bit of advice.

I hope this helps

Start by looking at what positive things are in your life,and the love and care you are shown hopefully by your family and friends,try and be considerate to other people,understand and help where you can,also believe in yourself and what you can do if you put your mind to it, remember the saying "Say it Believe it and Achieve it" not being aware of your physical state,but given you can exercise join a local gym or place where other people meet and possibly carry out exercises etc,it really does work wonders for your wellbeing and confidence,go out walking if possible in the countryside or failing that the local parks or areas where you can take time out and think of where you are in your life,I find the sounds and sights of being surrounded by nature works wonders on that feeling of its good to be alive,we get one chance at this life, try not to waste it..things are never as bad as they seem to be,try and look for the positive aspect in everything you encounter in your life,sorry to bang on about it...but you have to believe.
