Catastrophic Thinking is when we consider the spectrum of possibilities that can result from an event and believe in the most drastic, negative outcome. This pattern of thinking can affect our behaviour over time. That’s when anxiety starts to really affect us negatively. Hearing “your behaviour is the problem” when you’ve suffered an anxious episode is probably the last thing an anxious person can cope with hearing, but as Josh illustrates, these small acts of bravery - changing our behaviour in spite of our anxiety - can help to remind us what we’re capable of, and slowly re-pattern the anxious thought patterns we have grown accustomed to.
Note on the audio: Thank you listeners for putting up with the steady beeping that was coming from Ella’s side of the recording. New recording space caused some issues! We apologise if it annoyed you throughout the episode, but we have resolved the issue for episode 25 and onwards!
We are so grateful for your kind words, follows, and feedback! Keep in touch with us to know when we upload new episodes!
