I'm a largely negative person the majority of the time, but I do have my little positive moments.
 
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.
