So I started CBT 3 weeks ago ,and i had to do the anti - negative thing , so sometimes i have those thoughts , im not sure if they are negative or not ,they are like that : - if i do this ,then this will happen - . and actually happen , i made my only 2 friends that way . so is this a negative thoughts or not ?

I guess it would be classed as a negative thought , yes.
I find it hard being positive but i'm trying to change. I often think "if I do this , this will happen". It is such a hard mindset to escape!

It depends on what the thought exactly is.

Positive thought: "If I go to this appointment, I'll accomplish my goal."
Negative, irrational thought: "If I go to this appointment, I'll get rejected."
