Your Type
Your brain works very hard — when anxious, it rehearses every possible bad outcome. This isn't your fault; it's your brain's protection mechanism, except it protects by maximizing the perceived threat. What you need isn't 'stop thinking' — it's giving that diligent brain a new task to focus on.
💡 Did you know?
CBT research shows that 85% of 'catastrophizing thinkers' (who endlessly amplify worst cases) find real outcomes better than expected after events occur. Researchers call this 'negative prediction bias' — your brain works very hard, but its future-prediction accuracy is only about 15%.
