Let's Talk About... Catastrophising (Episode 157)

Let's Talk About Mental Health

Anxiety and catastrophising often go hand-in-hand, where you may find yourself fearing the future or plagued by challenging thoughts about the likelihood of things going wrong. But there is an enormous difference between ‘possibility’ and ‘certainty’, and so learning how to stop catastrophic thinking (which is one of many common cognitive distortions) and also challenging black and white thinking will help you to look at things more objectively and calmly.

How do you do that? Well, that’s what I’m talking about this week in my Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast, full of simple ideas and mental health tips that you can put into practice immediately. So, let’s talk about catastrophising!
