Stop indulging A) in self-pity. B) Stop indulging in bitter and negative projections into the future. Stop seeing yourself as helpless. Stop reminding yourself of how bitter your present experience is. Stop telling yourself that you are powerless and that there is nothing you can do to change your mood.
