9 Cognitive Distortions that can Cause Anxiety and Depression

I follow therapy for the black/white dichotomic thinking and it's not easy.
If you do this seek help, it will destroy most you love if you let it.

I have always had supervisor types at work that had all of these traits.....

Nice animation

My mind calls me a god. Is that good or is that bad?

Sooooo... what if I suffer from all of that??..

i think like any other human being i too have these biases and the ways to deal with them are almost the same ways my mum tells me to deal!!!

great summary but the music behind it is very distracting. It sets an eerie mood. I would consider changing it

Thank you so much for posting this! Amazing animation and advice too. I’m a graduate student, and I’ve noticed that I’ve been experiencing more cognitive distortions. I’m hoping to start a journal where I can record them and write solutions to curb those thoughts :)

I need this, im a mature aged student and i will never run the race the way many others my age have, im amongst a lot of younger people and its hard because i feel alone and different, like I don't belong to my old life or this new one. I really need a good mindset to make it through because its a long road ahead.

this video was great thank you so much 💚 helped me finally understand things that i thought were subconscious until i made the conscious effort to identify and change them…thank you

Had to come and watch the original video because imdontai kept fucking pausing it lol

Who came from @imstilldontai

Love your stuff man, this video is extremely helpful especially in the situation I am now. Means a lot to me and I hope your channel grows into something amazing.

Imdontai reacted to this video.. great vid, definitely helped me realize a lot abt myself

This is great but mostly im not sure if many people can observe their way out of these . In most situations they end up getting tunnel vision when in the situation and any outside assistance triggers ego defence mechanisms and leads them further down the rabbit hole . Perhaps this could be expanded further down the line.

I used to have most of these but I learnt they were harmful and made an effort to stop them so thats fucking huge.

FNG 🥜

Thank you

"Fortune telling" This channel going to become very successful :). Keep up the good work!

Your gonna blow up.

love it man

"Catastrophizing" is ultimately accurate. Everybody and everything's life ends in a horrible catastrophe, no matter how many dumb things you were able to do. "De-catastrophizing" is a cognitive distortion based on purposefully underestimating how bad sentient life is. You are born, and you might even be a "winner" in life, but then you'll get old, and after either a horrible accident or bad medical news followed by a tortuous downward spiral, your life will be terminated in a catastrophe. And it's all for nothing, too.

I have seen some reflections yes, but I still believe I had/have reasons to think how I've thought until now. Thank you for the video!!

I have/do all of the above all the time 😂

My mind definitely has these distortions from time to time.
Thanks to the educators like you, I have learned to help myself better.
Much love, and thank you for helping others help themselves :)

I hope my activity under your content boosts you in the algorithm ;)

I hope this video blows up soon...it was really helpful.Thank you

Wow. I recognize all of these distortions in myself. I’m trying to change.

I am very guilty of shoud be.

Very great explained. A high-quality video, I hope this channel will grow rapidly, it is important and so useful to share this knowledge.

Excellent summary. Most people suffer with these thoughts to some degree. Negative emotions are there for solid evolutionary reasons however, we should be taught emotions are not facts but early warning signs that need full investigation. I like to think of negative emotions as dashboard warning lights telling us something may be wrong as opposed to solid fact.

You are doing good work
