Your DEPRESSION Thoughts Are LYING to You: Learn to Catch Them

Описание: Most of us don’t even realize how much our negative thoughts shape our emotions. They show up quietly—quick judgments, assumptions, self-criticism—and they often go unnoticed. But if you’ve been feeling anxious, down, or stuck in cycles of overthinking, there’s a high chance your automatic thoughts are playing a big role. This guide breaks down a powerful strategy from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): learning to track and record your negative thoughts. By using a thought record, you can slow your mind down and examine the thoughts that come up in moments of distress. This isn’t just about being “more positive”—it’s about becoming more realistic, fair, and accurate in how you interpret situations. Once you identify your most common thinking traps—like catastrophizing, mind reading, or all-or-nothing thinking—you can begin to challenge them and replace them with more balanced alternatives. Tracking negative thoughts helps you step back from emotional reactions and build insight into your mental habits. Over time, this can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. It’s a skill that gets easier the more you practice—and it can fundamentally shift how you think, feel, and act.
