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.

Here’s some Biblical advice…

Philippians 4:6-8 (NASB1995):

6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.
