I have a trick that I'm convinced can do anyone wonders, especially at their darkest times. Examine the thoughts and beliefs in your head--I do this by kind of shining a spiritual light down into my mind and looking around--and look for any negative thoughts or beliefs you have about yourself. Wherever you find them, change or eliminate them. This has made me feel more socially confident, it's spiritually awakened me, it's made my aura white, it's gotten me through dark times, it's made me immune to haters, even feeling compassion for them and remorse that I made them feel all that negativity, it's put me on square one where the will to survive seemed like a pure opportunity, it's made me happy and at peace with myself, etc. While a person is at it, they should probably try changing or eliminating negative thoughts and beliefs they have about other people, too. It's only fair and balanced.
