How can you control your mood?

'Feelings are not facts but controllable and verifiable instruments', Doctor David Burns concludes in his renowned book Feeling Good, The New Mood Therapy. It is good to share your feelings regularly reality check according to the American psychiatrist. 'Emotions are often as thinking errors. They sustain themselves and worsen their impact. ' The snowball effect even takes care of that focused reasoned thinking has little or no effect. Feelings are experienced and believed as correct and true. I feel it, so it is. That is often not reasonable, untrue and completely overstated. ,,Feelings are like ducklings who follow their mother. They run after her everywhere, but have no idea where they go. Often just into the abyss, ‘' states doctor Burns. The fact that you are feeling good, doesn't mean you're a good person. The fact that you are feeling bad, does not therefore mean that you are a bad person. You can always choose your response. Feelings are there to control and not to control us.
