What would a psychoanalytic person say is wrong with a girl with a negative outlook on life?

Well, I am a psychoanalytical person AND a girl with a negative outlook on life, and I'd say what is wrong with a girl like that is maybe something bad happened to her once and she never fully recovered from it. It could be one single event, like an assault, or ongoing events such as abuse (in either emotional or physical form.) Some people may naturally have a negative view on life, but this is not common. The most people who have this negative outlook are people who have lost their faith in life, in the outcome of life, and see nothing positive for their present or their future. Sometimes you cannot help people who have lost too much this way, because their viewpoint is corrupted by their own mental distress. Most people would say avoid negative people because they will only bring you down. I say try to encourage that person to feel better about who she is before you ignore her completely and fulfill her prophesy that all life is negative and worthless crap. You only add to it when you ignore it. IF the person does not respond to your efforts, you have to leave them be, because they cannot become well unless they accept themselves and progress forward instead of clinging to a negative past or present.

What caused low self esteem?

The beliefs you have about yourself often appear to be statements of fact, although actually they're really only opinions. They are based on the experiences you've had in life, and the messages that these experiences have given you about the kind of person you are. If your experiences have been negative, your beliefs about yourself are likely to be negative too. Crucial experiences that help to form our beliefs about ourselves often (although not always) occur early in life. What you saw, heard and experienced in childhood - in your family, in the wider community and at school - will have influenced the way you see yourself. Sometimes negative beliefs about yourself are caused by experiences later in life, such as workplace bullying or intimidation, abusive relationships, persistent stress or hardship, or traumatic events.


What do you mean by attitude?

Your attitude towards anything in life will affect the outcome. If a person has a consistent negative attitude in life, i.e. no hope, no real goal, no purpose, then that person will go exactly in that direction. A positive attitude is one that gives hope and purpose. It's a willing heart and joyful spirit no matter the situation. I learned all about a positive attitude using a program at www.thepositivepower.com and it changed the way I view nearly everything in my life. A positive attitude is waking up and saying "Good Morning Lord" instead of "Good Lord it's morning."


How do I hurt someone's feelings if they have ADHD?

It's really best that you not try to hurt someone's feelings. If you are set on hurting someone's feelings because of some bigotry on your part towards minor neurological disorders, the best way forward is to get advice about how to overcome your own negative feelings. Find a way to let negative feelings go and move on in your life.
