One of the first things I tell people who are depressed is to stop talking bad about yourself. A lot of people do it as a joke or not too serious, I don't care, stop it! You're not an idiot for making a small mistake. You're not dumb because you forgot your keys. You're smart, you're talented, and you should treat yourself like you deserve.
