Take a negative thought you often have and write a positive counter-script.
Depression can often lead to a pattern of negative thinking. This exercise encourages you to consciously identify these negative thoughts and rewrite them into positive affirmations. Select a frequent negative thought, write it down, and then rewrite it into a positive statement. Explore the difference between the two — how they make you feel, how they influence your actions, etc. This prompt encourages cognitive restructuring, self-compassion, and positive thinking.
