My younger sister is 14. Recently I have noticed she has been doing a lot of negative self talk like "I am useless" and "I can't do it". I gift her a book every few months and I wanted to gift her something sweet that addresses this in a comforting way. She finds the bad in every situation, like the glass is half empty for her.
I gave her a self help book and she got intimidated by it, cause it laid out rules of what you should be doing and she started getting worried that she was not doing it. She doesn't like hardcore fiction either cause she thinks it's too unrealistic. for her. Her favourite book is "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman".
Any suggestions is appreciated. I just wish she started seeing things a little bit positively.
