How do you stop having negative thoughts?

I feel like it’s so much easier said than done. I actually have a nice life and a lot to be thankful for but some day I can be plagued with thought like no one likes you, people pretend to like you, your stupid, disgusting ugly etc. I can be too much of a perfectionist and am very self critical.

well, you can try and think differently about the world. Some people actually try to read books, and movies that influence them positively, Others open the door, and walk out into the world differently, seeking those people who will give them the kind of answers that soothe what sparked the question. And others believe that the world is not such a bad place, coz there is a higher power who is watching over all. Some call him God! And some believe that he knows every one of his creation by name!

@WhisperinAngelic101 Thankyou! I may have gotten into the habit of watching too much negative stuff on YouTube.
