The past few days I've tried to be "happy", "fun", "lively" and I have to admit there have been times when I started to believe it myself. I guess trying to be positive can help. But then comes today; I want to stay focussed on being positive but I'm struggling. Any suggestions?
Life isn't easy at the moment, lots going on in my head that I cannot face dealing with. I just want to shut it all out and be "normal".

It is so easy to fall into a negative way of thinking, but if we always try to look on the bright side of life, then life can become less burdonsome.
A good way to declutter our brains is by dealing with problems one at a time, and also viewing our progress in the same way by not expecting too much from ourselves at any one time.
A slow methodical approach works wonders believe me.

Normal is outrated. Who is normal? What is normal? If you cannot deal with things at the moment, then don't. When you feel up to it you can do things, meanwhile go easy on yourself.

when I have lots on my mind I write my thoughts down. It's like a "to do" list. I sometimes write down a day/date of when I will deal with each item on the list or just leave the list to deal with in the future.
If my mind is racing at bedtime , I keep paper and a pen handy to write thoughts down to help stop thinking about them.
i have days where I struggle and now accept it part of the illness - on these days I am kind to myself, don't push myself and try to relax and "try again tomorrow".
I hope these can help you, keep in touch, Katie x

Sorry to hear you are down hope you feel brighter soon. Writing things down help me too it might not be for you but try writing poetry or even a form of autobiography just for you to read which might help you to put your feelings into context. Joining a Drama club might also help you. For me being outdoors in nature always helps me especially being by the sea. Even if it
