Catastrophic Thinking
Catastrophic thoughts can have a big impact on mood and anxiety symptoms. When your mind jumps to the worst case, use our thought record to notice the thought, evaluate the evidence, and find a more balanced way to see it.
Unhelpful Thinking Styles
Download our free Thinking Traps worksheet. Page 1 describes ten common unhelpful thinking styles, or cognitive distortions, with a question to ask when you notice each one. Page 2 is a thought record to help you notice, evaluate and respond to a thought, including when a worry turns out to be realistic. For many people, these thinking patterns help keep anxiety and depression going.
