Are you an optimist, pessimist or realist?
Personally, I try approach things as a realist.

I've always been a realist, appearing to other people as a pessimist.. As the reality can be cruel.
I am realist. Mark my words, nuclear war will take place this year.

Realist. Not saying I can't be positive about things because I can. But if something can go wrong, it will go wrong.

Long story short. Expect the best and prepare for the worst.
Pessimist. I grew up with a rough start and several mental disorders, and once I heard I was medically not supposed to happen and if I was I was meant to be incapable of living without 24/7 Assistance, and seeing everything grow expensive, I just realized; "I'm screwed no matter what I do."

Everyone is, because no on lives forever.

Sometimes I am optimistic, but most of the time I am a realist.
Mega pessimist disguised as a realist.

Things are always getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥' worse, and that's just how it goes. Everything sure does start out pretty good, and from there it's all downhill. People take a good idea ~ ruin it.

The passionate people in this world are always overruled by the majority, who love money, greed, and pride.

There is a theory that depressed people see things more realistically. Called depressive realism. I can understand that, it seems common for people to uphold these illusions which allows them to keep going.

I'd call that closer to pessimism than realism. Assuming things will go wrong because everything sucks at the moment is a natural defense mechanism to make the pain of depression less painful.

You mean what the guy above me said? I don't read it as "everything will go wrong", more like everything will fall apart over time.
