My patients with sometimes aren’t even aware that they are depressed. People think that depression has to lead to impairments in your functioning but this is not the case. If your depression causes significant distress and you are still functioning, you still meet criteria for depression. Many people with HFD don’t enjoy things the way they used to and feel compelled to live “all work and no play” lives because they derive a sense of purpose from their work identity. However, they don’t prioritize the simple pleasures that bring joy to life. Disclaimer: You may want to consider diagnosis and treatment of symptoms with a licensed medical professional.

Childhood trauma can linger into parts of your adult life in ways that are not conscious. In my practice, there are times when parents are hyper vigilant and in fight or flight when they make decisions with regards to their children. This may cause their children to experience anxiety and stress. Disclaimer: You may want to consider diagnosis and treatment of symptoms with a licensed medical professional.

Do you constantly filter out the positive thoughts and only focus on the negative ones? This is called mental filtering. 🤔 In my weekly newsletter I teach you how to combat this cognitive distortion so that you can challenge these negative thoughts by using cognitive behavioral therapy. ❤️‍🩹 Link in Bio 🔗 #thoughtsthatkeepmeupatnight #thoughtdistortions #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #mentalhealth

April is SA Awareness Month. #traumatok One of the least acknowledged symptoms of trauma is risky behavior. Many are confused about this symptom that is well studied in psychiatry because they cannot comprehend why someone who has survived trauma would seek out risky behaviors where they could potentially be retraumatized. 🤔 This is why survivors of SA end up in situations where they are repeatedly assaulted and researchers believe that these individuals seek out a false sense of control by “living on the edge” and potentially narrowly escaping trauma. Re-enacting the trauma by engaging in risky situations and then surviving the risky situations fools the person in to thinking that they somehow have control and are somehow undoing the trauma. 😢 The problem is that sometimes the individual actually gets harmed again and this further leads the person to seek out another dangerous situation thinking that they can try to take control again. ❤️‍🩹 Disclaimer: You may want to consider your individual mental health needs with a licensed medical professional.

Cognitive Distortions are though traps that may occur when you have thought patterns that are stuck in unhealthy patterns. All of Nothing thinking is one type🗯️ When you think In extremes such as you are a success and a failure these are red flags of all or nothing thinking. 🚩 Therapy can be helpful in challenging these thoughts ❤️‍🩹 Disclaimer: You may want to consider your individual mental health needs with a licensed medical professional.
