Excellent summary. Most people suffer with these thoughts to some degree. Negative emotions are there for solid evolutionary reasons however, we should be taught emotions are not facts but early warning signs that need full investigation. I like to think of negative emotions as dashboard warning lights telling us something may be wrong as opposed to solid fact. You are doing good work
Thank you! Absolutely, all emotions are valid and deserve our attention! Arguably, there are no ‘negative’ emotions as even uncomfortable emotions are valid and can teach us something.
A therapist here, LOVE these videos. I send them to my patients and they find them SUPER helpful and relatable. Helps take therapy to the next level rather than just talking, it helps the work become more visual!
Almost nobody commits these distortions explicitly, and adopting a strategy to "not commit cognitive distortion" is a counter-distortion designed to make you underestimate how bad the universe is.
@@fictionisfake4280 thanks for commenting! Distortions are definitely subconscious. Arguably, raising them to the conscious level gives us more free will. However, we live in a socially constructed world; none of us can hope to experience the ‘real’ world. The lens we choose to view the world has a significant impact on our daily lives 🙂
Love your stuff man, this video is extremely helpful especially in the situation I am now. Means a lot to me and I hope your channel grows into something amazing.
My mind definitely has these distortions from time to time. Thanks to the educators like you, I have learned to help myself better. Much love, and thank you for helping others help themselves :) I hope my activity under your content boosts you in the algorithm ;)
Thank you so much for posting this! Amazing animation and advice too. I’m a graduate student, and I’ve noticed that I’ve been experiencing more cognitive distortions. I’m hoping to start a journal where I can record them and write solutions to curb those thoughts :)
Thank you so much sir... . I recognized mind reading disorder in myself and I'll try my best to get rid of it . I know am practicing it for a long time so it will little dificult to me to overcome this but I'll never hopless I will do it InshaAllah
It's called 'over-thinking'. Somehow, we're supposed to stop thinking so much. I think childhood trauma has a lot to do with thought patterns, especially hypervigilance & if u were scapegoated as a child then someone else created your self-image & it probably wasn't a very good one.
Absolutely! Many of our thoughts are fair reflections of reality, it’s just a case of looking out for the ones that aren’t! Thanks so much for watching 😀
We all have them and it’s practically impossible to avoid them all the time but knowing they exist and checking our thoughts for possible distortions can make a big difference! 😊
this video was great thank you so much 💚 helped me finally understand things that i thought were subconscious until i made the conscious effort to identify and change them…thank you
I need this, im a mature aged student and i will never run the race the way many others my age have, im amongst a lot of younger people and its hard because i feel alone and different, like I don't belong to my old life or this new one. I really need a good mindset to make it through because its a long road ahead.
Glad this was helpful. It's always good to remember that our thoughts and feelings are projections and not facts, so if you feel different and alone that doesn't mean you are, or that other people see you that way. Good luck with your positive mindset!
This is great but mostly im not sure if many people can observe their way out of these . In most situations they end up getting tunnel vision when in the situation and any outside assistance triggers ego defence mechanisms and leads them further down the rabbit hole . Perhaps this could be expanded further down the line.
Thanks! This video gives a quick overview of some ideas from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Some ppl would benefit from further support, e.g. sessions with a cognitive behavioural therapist 🙂
Awareness and observation are foundational to being able to take action to change. We have to see, no longer be blind, to our own patterns. Too often we are mindlessly, automatically, carried by thoughts, and in this case, distorted thinking. To be swept up, in these thinking patterns, is to be ruled by them. Observation breaks that. Witnessing, inquiring, are not at all a tunnel vision approach...but instead a zooming out, an ability to start to employ metacognition, introspection, in an aware, balanced way. Through these observations, skills, we can more actively choose our thinking, bringing the subconscious to the conscious.
Thanks for watching! Music can be tricky - I’m still experimenting and trying to figure out what works! 🙂Unfortunately, videos can’t be changed once uploaded…
Different things; cognitive dissonance is when there's a difference between what you believe and what you do. I might do a video on this topic in the future!
Try to practise self-care - be kind to yourself and try to notice what you’re doing well and small steps of progress and not just the things that you want to do better 🙂
"Catastrophizing" is ultimately accurate. Everybody and everything's life ends in a horrible catastrophe, no matter how many dumb things you were able to do. "De-catastrophizing" is a cognitive distortion based on purposefully underestimating how bad sentient life is. You are born, and you might even be a "winner" in life, but then you'll get old, and after either a horrible accident or bad medical news followed by a tortuous downward spiral, your life will be terminated in a catastrophe. And it's all for nothing, too.
Thanks for your comment! In this context, catastrophizing relates to the day-to-day magnification of events and the likelihood of something terrible happening, rather than the inevitable end of our lives. I appreciate you taking time to share your view 🙂
Thanks for watching! Although we can’t stop cognitive distortions entirely we can learn to notice them and reduce their influence over our mood and behaviour 👍
But what if you’ve caught some people in the act talking about you! I’m not stupid I know these people are talking about me. It feels horrible. I wish I could go out and party and sleep with a lot of women like most men my age do. I have this thing where I have jello legs. I wobble and walk weird in public. And sometimes alone as well. In public people see me walking and notice my jello legs and talk about it. My anxiety sky rockets if people are staring at me or if I feel like they are. I get very tired of my jello legs and people pointing and talking everyday.
In situations like this, it can help to focus on what you can control (e.g., how you respond to others) and what you can’t control (e.g., what other people say). Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Have you listed down the reasons in why you believe you're God?? Do you indulge your life with religion and believe that God has chosen you to save the world and others around you?? If so, I'd suggest in stepping away from reading, viewing and talking about religion with others. Keep a journal around and when you catch yourself in situations that quickly bring up you asking yourself or wanting to tell others,"but in the ____ it says to not do this." Then quickly write down what you wanted to say or thought and later write down how the scenario played in your perspective to why you reacted in that way. Id invest in talking to a therapist about it and telling them you'd like a professional's view point towards your journal, where they can possibly challenge you later on to see if you still think that way. If you don't want to see a therapist then I'd definitely would look back at your journal and either argue against yourself or ask yourself questions in what led you to that view point.
@@HiWLo I never said I think I'm god. I said my mind kept yapping about it ever since I was a kid. now it's quiet. But before it got quiet it say "I gave you a chance, to be their guide, their savior, but now your choices will make everything burn. All because you chose to be human" So yeah, I had pretty fucked up dementia or something.
I think this is a big one for many people! The good news is that when we start noticing cognitive distortions we can start to challenge and replace them 🙂
Gives me a little Kurzgesagt vibes. Keep up the good work
Thanks! I really like Kurzgesagt so any comparison with that channel is a great compliment!
I saw someone watch this video and I literally looked up Kurzgestagt bc I thought that’s what channel uploaded it😂
@@hunterwagner4130 😂 Any comparison with In a Nutshell is a compliment! Although I'd like my style to evolve into something unique! 🙂

Thanks! The videos take a lot of time to make but I'm aiming to make two per month in the future!
@@MindKnown honestly, amazing content. Really can use it for a potential growth.
Wow. I recognize all of these distortions in myself. I’m trying to change.
These are very common cognitive distortions so you certainly aren’t alone! Once you begin to notice them you can begin to challenge them! 🙂

Great video! What would have been even better are some peer-reviewed articles or DOI numbers for the time stamps. For those who want to dive deeper.
Very great explained. A high-quality video, I hope this channel will grow rapidly, it is important and so useful to share this knowledge.

This must have been written by someone who spends a lot of time alone self analysing. Respect.
Thanks! I'm a psychologist so introspection comes with the job!
Nothing to do with the author's introspection. It's just repeating basics that all therapists learn in training.

i think like any other human being i too have these biases and the ways to deal with them are almost the same ways my mum tells me to deal!!!
We all have them and it’s practically impossible to avoid them all the time but knowing they exist and checking our thoughts for possible distortions can make a big difference! 😊

I follow therapy for the black/white dichotomic thinking and it's not easy.
