Learn Positive Self-Talk ^^

Sometimes we have negative thoughts about ourselves or our situation ("This is unbearable, I don't think I can do this" or "I feel awful, why am I doing this to myself?"). If you catch yourself using negative self-talk, say the word "stop" to yourself. Take a moment to clear your mind and then replace the negative talk with positive self-talk.

Examples of positive self-talk include:

• It will get better in time.
• I've handled things tougher than this.
• What I feel is evidence that my body is healing itself.
• I only have to deal with one day at a time.
