Our minds conditioning us through addiction /life in general that something bad will happen. Also low self worth plays a part for me. When I was using I didn't think I deserved anything good to happen. The addict brain made me think I deserved to suffer. It's all lies !! lol we all deserve good things and I remind people of this as much as I can

Bad things happen. I remember when my depression was not worked on I had a very hard time not believing that all things were bad and I was on a run of negativity. Now I choose to just accept the bad things that happen and look forward to the good things.
Is something bad around the corner for you TPD?

what a great question, TPD!
i try hard to manage my depression. but even when i do...
i have a long track record of self-harm. that is, i make *sure* that bad things happen to myself. most recently, drugs were/are my weapon of choice. but i've used so many things to make sure bad things happened. eating disorders, cutting, a gun once; the list goes on.
one reason i do these things--the part I'm actually able to describe--is because i'd rather bring the bad shit to myself when i'm expecting it than get caught off-guard. i have a mortal fear of being sucker-punched by bad events, and i have gone to great and remarkably weird lengths to make sure that happens rarely.
so the next question is... why am i so sure the universe is gonna clock me?

Nothing bad's going to happen.

having unrealistic expectations will lead to the perception that bad things always happen to you. Also, do not set the bar too low on life, because it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. The only way to stop bad things from happening is to plan appropriately, and do right by people in your life. Bad things will happen sometimes, its just the way it is.
With my OCD and panic disorder I tend to overplan, and obsess about bad things happening. I have had to retool my way of thinking and learn to look at things objectively.

Well we're all going to die, that's always unconsciously in the back of the mind. The fact is that sooner or later something bad will happen. I was a major athlete for 60 years and then lost it all in a moment to a nasty disease.
