I'm a largely negative person the majority of the time, but I do have my little positive moments.
 
I'm actually shocked by the amount of people who voted themselves as negative. That is so sad.
 
There are times when I'm so negative but most of the time I'm positive. I mean when things become negative I just stay away from it, especially if it's about people. Surrounding myself with happy people or things that make me happy is number one.
 
i think i'm mostly a negative person regarding my own thoughts and feelings, but i try to positive to people when they need support.
 
A positive person who feels a lot of negative feelings. I have chronic anxiety and depression issues and trauma and I'm on the Autism spectrum with pretty intense hypersensitivity to a lot of sensory input, so it's kind of hard not to be in a bad mood a lot of the time, but I don't think I could say I'm not a positive person because I keep fighting to get better even when things feel hopeless.

I've had that too, since I was 17.
It's a way of life, but I just get through each day with as much positivity as I can muster, which can be hard if the real anxiety sets in.

I don't ever want to lose hope.
Hope gets me out of bed in the morning. :)
 
I’m probably one of the most positive people you’ll find, to be honest (my real name literally translates to someone who lives a carefree and luxurious life). I was born with Aspergers, but that’s beside the point. I don’t see myself as different from anyone else, and honestly, it doesn’t feel like I even have it anymore. I wake up each day nowadays looking forward to a glorious day. There’s not much that gets me down. Even when I am down, one of the few things I’m good at in life is recovering from pain, whether it’s physical, mental, or emotional. I’m one of the fastest people I know at being back on my feet and happy again (maybe it helps that I have more energy than most people too? Idk). I very rarely get angry either. Someone has to directly confront me and say something out of line to make me angry (but when I get angry I get EXTREMELY angry). But yeah, one of my big goals in life is to make as many people happy as possible, and I can’t do that when I’m feeling down. Life’s not fun when it’s filled with negative thoughts anyway, right? :D
 
I guess it just depends on what my mood is at the time--generally, I try to be positive, but sometimes I have bad days and I end up negative for a while. I can flip between the two within hours, which is "always fun" ': D
 
I'm a positive person. I like trying to make others happy- as well as keeping myself in a positive mindset. But unfortunately, I can be critical and blunt. I can also be more logical or black & white in the presence of emotional situations. This can make me come off as negative/unkind.
 
I'm definitely more of a negative person. I have a lot of inner turmoil and traumas, but I try to keep positive and be nice to people now. I used to be pretty bitter and rude just because of it, but I definitely am a pessimist most of the time and see the glass as half empty in tons of situations. I also tend to brood on negative situations instead of trying to see the light in situations.
 
When it comes to my outlook on my own life I tend to be kind of negative just because of things that are out of my control that upset me easily. But I try to be positive for my friends.

This is pretty much true of me also. I tend to take a negative view of my own life, but I'm not constantly complaining about it so I don't think most of the people around me even realize how negative I can be. I try to still be positive and supportive of others regardless of my own negative feelings.

I don't wallow in negativity, though. I look at it from the viewpoint that I can be optimistic and constantly be disappointed when the outcome is less than what I expected, or I can be pessimistic and therefore be prepared for the worst so I can deal with it better. And if I prepare for the worst and things actually go well, then I feel like I come out ahead.
