How to End Catastrophic Thinking … Forever!

When you think of the future, do you find yourself thinking about the worst things that could possibly

happen? Do you worry about things that haven’t happened yet and might never happen? Do you feel the

need to be prepared for everything bad that might come your way, no matter how unlikely? If you

answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are trapped in a pattern of catastrophic thinking.

Catastrophic thinkers often feel that this way of thinking keeps them prepared for bad things so that they

can be ready. They think, “It’s better to know the worst,” and “If I don’t think about what might happen,

how will I be able to handle it if it does happen?” Catastrophic thinking gives them a sense of safety and

security.

But if we look closer at the habit of catastrophic thinking, we see that it does not in fact keep us any safer or

happier; in fact, it harms us and makes it harder for us to act in beneficial ways.

In order to demonstrate this point, I would like to go through a quick exercise with you. Put yourself in a

catastrophic mindset about something. It can literally be about any even that you fear or are worried about

at all. Now, once you are in this mindset, take a moment to notice how you feel emotionally and physically.

You will probably feel some or all of the following:

Tense

Anxious

Nervous

Worried

Afraid

Helpless

Vulnerable

Drained of energy

Overwhelmed with dread

Sad

Heavy

Bleak

Hopeless

Weak

Etc

Does this feel healthy? Or does it feel toxic? Chances are you would say that it feels toxic.

Now think about sometime when you were safe and protected. Did you feel any of these negative

emotions?

Your catastrophic thinking is not healthy, and it does not actually protect you. Let this realization sink into

your consciousness: catastrophic thinking does not protect you. It harms you.

Now notice how you feel inside.

Go back to the catastrophic thinking you accessed earlier and see if you can re-connect to it now. You will

probably find that it is difficult to access, and that you don’t even want to.
