Being in a student myself, i've often become uncomfortable with my peers who have taken a turn on their personalities due to various pressures and stress at school. What forms of negativity do you have to face daily and how do you cope with it?

Thats a lot of good advice. Thanks everyone!
A friend suggested something to me today: everyday when you wake up, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself today will be a good. Then you will see how everything works out for you automatically. Your positive mindset is your biggest support at all times!

Aoa wr wb: :)
You should maintain a positive boundary.
Some people might tell you to visualize a bright white light around you to maintain a positive space when other people enter it with negativity. This doesn’t actually work for me because I respond better to ideas in words than visualizations. So I tell myself this, “I can only control the positive space I create around myself.”
Then when I interact with this person, I try to do two things, in this order of importance:
  • Protect the positive space around me. When their negativity is too strong to protect it, I need to walk away.
  • Help them feel more positive, not act more positive–which is more likely to create the desired result.
