MA, I've been reading some of Louise Hay's thoughts, as well as a great deal about the Law of Attraction over the past while, and have worked diligently on changing focus/attitude/language. I believed in it, could see the merit, but have yet to succeed at it in my own life, and not for lack of trying and "doing" visualizations and positive thinking.

I think that there is an element of frustration and bafflement in the mix of my so-called depressive mood these days, because even after months of affirmations, gratitude and positive thinking, I'm still spiralling and cannot find my way out through these means alone. Maybe it's because there is an air of desperation in my diligence, rather than pure belief, and perhaps "the universe" responds to the underlying desperation/fear rather than the spoken desire and behaviours I'm changing in an effort to rise above.

At any rate, after reading all of these books and diligent efforts to improve, I still haven't figured out how to succeed or make this law of attraction work for me. I haven't given up, I just need interim help to stay healthy and safe while continuing to learn how to do it Hay's way.
