The reason why people keep saying "think positive" is because it makes them feel better, and they don`t have to deal with "your" problem.

Gratitude is so much more helpful than positivity. It allows you to feel and process the hurt and distress you experience while also acknowledging the good things. Neither has to be exclusive.

I loved this talk! I’ve been reading so many social media posts about “good vibes only,” and “if you’re depressed or negative, then I can’t be your friend. Don’t call me.” It shows a stunning lack of empathy. I hope this gets more views and a wider audience.

FACTS!! I cannot STAND the current trend of toxic positivity culture. It's spreading like a virus and it has in fact permanently damaged the relationship between me and one of my older sisters (she has the manifestation/toxic positivity mindset HARD core). Ugh!

I also use the term "delusional optimism". Being told "Dont worry, it will all work out". Yea, because Im going to be realistic of the situation and put the work into it. You can do all the right moves and and still lose.

To be forched to be positive about something you know wich was not right at all ,will make you sick, mental and fysical. The body never lies.

There is nothing wrong in being positive. In fact, positivity motivates us for future. But it can be harmful if it is forceful and when you do not acknowledge your other emotions and just keep on thinking positively. Acknowledge your negative emotions also. If you do not then it will be toxic to your mental health.
