I don't know about you but it gives me more motivation to change the way I think about things. Maybe if I think more positive, more people will want to be near me, thus, I could be less lonely?

Speaking for myself - "thinking positive" is near impossible. OCD, PTSD, anxiety, depression - a person with mental illness can't just not let it affect their daily lives. I can smile, can feel good - but always there's that lead weight dead zone. Telling a person with depression to think positive is like telling a paraplegic to walk it off.

No worries
We all have our own opinions and I respect yours.
I believe everyone is capable of changing the way they view things. I don't think it's like a light switch that you can turn on and off. But I feel if you want something bad enough, you can improve yourself by taking appropriate steps.
