Challenging automatic negative thoughts. Thanks for this today
when I catch myself ruminating I tell my brain - MOVE FORWARD . This helps me a lot .
The best, most helpful, and funniest, thing you said was ,"You can say you don't care that you don't care " 🤣🤣🤣 Your saying stopped the negative loop in my head of constantly saying, "Why bother". Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!! 😁🙏🤣
I came into work today, to find that a coworker had passed away. She's my age. I'm already dealing with almost obsessive thoughts about my mortality and my husband's, who's 10 years older than me, then this happens. My dilemma is that I don't want to think about it, but at the same time, I'm feeling like she deserves to be thought about. She deserves to be remembered and loved. It feels almost wrong to carry on with my day, smiling at customers and sounding cheerful, when tragedy has just happened in my world. There's almost a sense of guilt for not wanting to thinking of her.
thank you . loosing thousands of dollars to a scam constantly fills my brain. DISTRESS . SO I got a job to focus. so I read BIBLE when these thoughts pop up
For me working with 100% on something makes feel less bad about bad things
Thank you Scott…
Meditation and Mindfulness is the answer to this problem.

Help how to get rid of shampoo thoughts
I just override it by then thinking about food. Or dogs or cats, or just animals going into a space then panicking and running away because they didn't realise a potential predator was leisuring in the space already.
Still baffles me that the brain named itself the brain and all the other brains are just like "mmmm yes that is what we shall be called 💅"
My brain: "Don't think about breathing or you might forget to breathe." "And what's making your heart beat right now? Is thinking about it going to accidentally make it stop?"
❤️👍
