The media floods us with negativity every day. The constant influx of distressing headlines and gloomy narratives can weigh heavily on our mental well-being, leaving us disheartened and overwhelmed.

But by consciously offsetting this negativity, whether through uplifting stories, humorous content, or inspiring messages, we can restore a sense of hope, optimism, and resilience.

Enter the Instagram account 'Tanks Good News.' Dedicated to what it calls "positivity with a hint of humor" it really contributes to fostering empathy, kindness, and progress on the internet.

    It is NEVER too late to learn. I wish my mother would realize this. I'm 41, and I have learned new things and better ways to treat people more humanely and kindly, and to respect who they are and what they care about and things that are important to them. It costs nothing to use someone's preferred pronouns or proper name. It costs nothing to treat people of color as who they are - normal human beings like any other human being. It hurts me to see my mother be so purposefully racist, obtuse, and cruel, even to people she has never met.

    I had a similar experience as a teen. I was in a long term psychiatric facility for teenagers, and one day I'd really had it. I flung myself at the locked doors from a running jump- and then the entire scene disappeared and became a garden. I saw a person who told me it was not my time to go yet, and then the scene vanished as I was removed from the area limb by limb. It's remained with me for the past 25years.

    Sometimes all it takes is that one reminder that life might have a bit more to offer you. About ten years ago I was getting ready to swallow a bottle of pills when my sister texted me. My phone screen lit up and I saw my background photo of my then 2-year old nephew, and saw my sister's text asking if I wanted to come over to her place to play mario kart. I'm still here today and doing a LOT better.

    I'm so glad that there are people like this. Speaking from experience, it can be extremely hard to believe the people you know who try to help you, because your mind can twist it however it wants. With a stranger, it's an act of kindness that they never had to do in the first place, no reason or motivation other than a person looking down.

    I was in that hole from 4th grade through high school. A lor of people are during those years and it otften takes almost all you have to give to get through it, but he is correct, life does get better. Good things come into it, bad memories fade, you get busy with life. Ask for what you need distract yourself from what you don't want through nature, a hobby, reading, journaling, exercise, a dog friend, etc. Best of future to you,

    There's nothing like facing the question of your own mortality to make you think about the things that really matter to you. When the pandemic started, given that I am not a healthy person, I was very much afraid that I might catch COVID and die. So I asked myself, "What's the one thing I really, really want to do before I die?" The answer was "I wanna see the Northern Lights!" Well, I got all boostered up and when I did catch COVID I came out of it just fine, so now to start working at going up North and seeing those lights dance in the sky.

    It is devastating and horrifying to be an American right now. Fearing and hating your fellow citizens who choose to slaughter innocent people with weapons they shouldn't own. Those of us in America who are against assault weapon ownership feel compassion and empathy towards the victims of mass shootings. It hurts all of us as if they were our own family.

    I have an Asian neighbour like this. I'm in my 50s I care for my mum full time who is 81. He did all our front yard weeding. I insisted on paying him, he said no way God pays him in blessings every day. I put the bins out last night and he was walking by we said our Helios. Went to put them back in and he had already done so for me today.

    When my sister got a liver transplant it was like a magic spell— we could literally watch the jaundice start to fade from her face the very first day. The transformation was incredible. She’s had over twenty years of healthy life since, and we’re grateful for every day of it. Organ transplants are a genuine miracle of science. Donate your organs folks!

    Reminds me of that adorable Christmas ad about the old guy who keeps lifting one of those kettle weights every day and his neighbours think he's being daft, but it turns out he's training for when he will lift his grandkid so the kid can put the star on top of the Christmas tree.

    It's strange to see a person who willingly causes harm to people like the autism community do nice things for other people. Still not a fan of hers no matter her ticket prices

    This hits me hard. My dad had an accident when I was 18 and sustained a catastrophic brain injury. He lived for another 21 years, and we took care of him at home, but my dad was gone on that day in 2000. He died two years ago and I miss him twice - once for the dad that I lost on the day of his accident, and once for the day he died in the hospital with me holding his hand. I was the only one in my family who stayed at his side until he died.

    I'm the middle of three boys. At about 12, 10, 7, when I got bullied (glasses, book, younger-looking than my age) my brothers, both, would defend me from aggressors, then hit me for not fighting back myself. We are still close at 75, 73, 70.

    I sing when I'm happy, too. I do have sad songs on my phone, though, and sometimes one will cycle through in shuffle mode and hit me hard (e.g., "You’re Not There" by Lukas Graham) and I'll start crying as I'm singing. If I'm at home, my older cat will run over chirping at me when I cry. It's like she's checking up on me to make sure I'm okay. It always works too, as I give her a hug and she makes me smile and stop crying :) I may have lost my father, but I still have lights of love in my life.

    A few months ago a mentally challenged older woman was holding up the queue at the shop because she didn't have enough money to buy a tin of coca cola. Nobody done shxt, just stared at her. I step up and buy said beverage. The girl behind the till ushers me to the front of the queue and still does to this day. I felt like superman walking out of that shop. I'm so glad my credit card worked because i was pretty effing skint!!!

    She was right! Exercise, sunshine, and a little sugar—it helps a lot. Doesn’t fix everything, but makes a big difference. Just throwing it out there—get a full medical checkup if you can. Many physical diseases cause depression, like low thyroid or not enough vitamin D. And if you can, see about antidepressants. Depression is a complex illness and there’s a lot of ways to fight it. I'm in favor of using every weapon I've got against it.

    From OP on Instagram: "My 18 year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night. A man came up to her and started talking to her. A barista handed her 'an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.' How grateful I am for people who look out for other people! Side note: She felt safe and did not remove the lid, but let them know. She said the whole team was watching over her the rest of the time she was there."

    I'm adopted, and while my mother is unfortunately a toxic narcissist who was physically and mentally abusive to me all through my life (and still abuses me to this day), I was fortunate to have had a best friend and personal hero in my dad. He was amazing. I hope OP in the photo gets to spend time with her mum even though they live far apart!
