Challenge Unhelpful Thoughts
When we are experiencing anxiety it is important to be aware of our THOUGHT PATTERNS. Our inaccurate or irrational thoughts are often what started or what is perpetuating our anxiety.
Here are a list of common negative thought patterns that we should try to recognize and then challenge - especially when we are experiencing anxiety:
All-or-Nothing Thinking
Overgeneralization
Mental Filter
Disqualifying the Positive
Jumping to Conclusions
Magnification (catastrophising) and Minimization
Emotional Reasoning
"Should" Statements
Labelling/Mislabeling
Personalization
