Common insanity

Once you have identified with some form of negativity, 
you do not want to let go, 
and on a deeply unconscious level,
you do not want positive change. 
It would threaten your identity as a depressed, angry, or hard-done-by person. 
You will then ignore, deny or sabotage the positive in your life. 
This is a common phenomenon. 
It is also insane.
