Intructions:

melissasingletary7 — 2024-02-21 04:33:38 UTC

First, share your name, where you live, and an interesting fact (like I have played the piano since I was 10 years. old).

Pick a leader to share your group’s information when we return to the larger group.

Pick a person to write down the answers in Padlet.

Discuss your “unhelpful thinking style” and answer the (3) questions: 1. briefly describe the situation 2. What were the thoughts that went through your mind? 3. What feelings did you experience consequent to your thinking?

melissasingletary7 — 2024-02-21 04:33:47 UTC

Share an example of yourself or others who have used this thinking style. Then, write a brief example of the best example on Padlet.

doing a group project and it goes very bad.

it gives you a feeling that maybe its because you slacked off and did'nt give your 100 percent.

it leaves you with a feeling of guilt and regret even though it was a team effort we usualy take all the blame on ourself.

I had a bad day. My friend ignored me at lunch. When I got home, I told my family that noone likes me.

melissasingletary7 — 2024-02-21 23:42:17 UTC

My friend kept interrupting me when I was talking. I jumped to conclusions that they do not care about me.

feelings consequent to the thinking

2024-02-21 23:43:42 UTC

feeling sadness and guilt for the action that you feel responsible for

2024-02-21 23:44:07 UTC

I had my year 12 exams last year and I was so much scared of scoring less or not getting satisfactory grades. I could actually feel the anxiety triggering and that worsened the situation. I was not even able to focus! but somehow just passed 😅

The Chicken Little Effect

2024-02-21 23:44:40 UTC

The feeling that the sky is falling and it really isn't

2024-02-21 23:45:42 UTC

When I received HD for 2 subject, but one C grade in 1 subject. Instead of celebrating the overall achievement.

Accidentally broke my friend laptop at my friend's house.

farhan1_1 — 2024-02-21 23:45:58 UTC

and I was thinking like, I should have been more careful"; "I shouldn't have touched it", "I've made a big mistake."

I was feeling Embarrassment, regret, worry about my friend's reaction, and feeling about how to make things right.

Not seeing the wood for the trees

2024-02-21 23:46:27 UTC

Focusing on the pimple on your nose, instead of everything else going on on your face

this situation often hapoen to me when i feel that i am just lucky when something good finally happened, cause i always feel that i often got those misfortune

When my friend was always helpful and nice to be but this one day she hid something from me and was rude and all I could think of was why she would do that and I started criticising her and overthinking about that instead of all the good things she did

Focusing on other things

kylelim3 — 2024-02-21 23:50:07 UTC

Focused on video games instead of assessments, instead of improving your grades

I am so stupid. I misspelled the word again.

Group 1: Mental Filter and Jumping to Conclusions

Group 2: Personalisation and Catastrophising

Group 3: Overgenalisation and Labelling

Group 4: emotional reasoning and magnification and minimizing

2024-02-23 02:42:49 UTC

I overthink a lot, what if someone thinks this and that, which affected my mental health.

Overthinking and self doubt

2024-02-23 02:45:30 UTC

my experience would be when I had to present something to my class once and i was feeling very nervous. So, i kept analysing other peoples presentations and kept doubting that fact that my presentation wasn't that good and that I should've added more info or excluded some etc.

when you submit your group assignment and your part is not so good as others and your group gets lesser mark then they deserved and you blame it on yourself that yo had done better. (personalization)

2024-02-23 02:50:32 UTC

for me i would say in highschool when i didn't get a good mark on one of my tests for a subject. i kept making it worse by overthinking and thought i wouldn't pass that subject, and if i don't pass the subject i wont get a good final mark. i kept making the situation even worse by adding more worries on top of a already stressful situation for me.

An example; imagine you are on outing with your friend or your partner and you had a disagreement about something and you are just discussing about the disagreement and neglecting the fruitful time spent together

Focusing on the disagreement

2024-02-23 02:52:31 UTC

I went out to an outing with my partner and we had a lovely night together and we enjoyed a lot but we had a disagreement on a topic that we were discussing and started pulling out on the negative things instead of focusing on the lovely time we spent together.

you think your whole life is over due to one mistake, but in fact you're not even near to experiencing all that life has to offer you.

2024-02-23 02:53:54 UTC

I always had fun with my workplace friend and she would always make our shift together fun and would help me around with it. One day I needed some help from her regarding money I thought she would lend it to me as I promised to pay her back as soon as possible but she didn't, immediately after that I thought she didn't trust me instead of thinking maybe she wasn't in the situation to give it to me.

Overgeneralisation

2024-02-23 02:54:07 UTC

When I joined the university after completing my certificate course. I felt very dumb at the beginning as I had no knowledge about how to access the things. I tried to make friends but found out no one really care. Started thinking I’ll be used to and can do it by my own

After all you are the only one who will be there for you till the end

PTE EXAM

2024-02-23 02:54:44 UTC

Recently i had a PTE exam and there was new type of questionnaire and i was nervous that what if i fail if i do not attempt these questions, but later i knew that we could skip it. that moment was a bit of of unhelpful thinking.

2024-02-23 02:55:26 UTC

neglecting the positive of spending time together in an outing or activity and just focusing on a negative thing which can be overlooked

I used to have anxiety attacks that would turn into uncontrollable shaking when I was a waitress. My boss was not kind and used to shout at all the staff. When he was not around we worked well together But as soon as he walked in, we were all in a state of anxiety and walking around egg shells. I made the situation worse for myself by focusing too much on trying to calm him down and not yell in front of the customers. CATASTROPHISING

2024-02-23 02:56:13 UTC

Emotional reasoning is definitely effected by our negative thinking and not always reasonable. We can take a glass half empty approach instead of half full.

2024-02-23 02:57:24 UTC

PERSONALISATION

2024-02-23 02:58:04 UTC

I just want to say when i wanted to cook something really nice and it doesn't goes as i expected and i was starting blaming myself.
