With neurosis, thoughts seem very realistic and truthful. Thoughts about a catastrophic scenario, about the worst outcome, constantly make themselves felt and this feeling cannot be avoided. Today I will share with you a couple of techniques on how you can devalue your thoughts. Imagine your thoughts in the form of some funny image, come up with a name, appearance, etc. for it, for example, “Well, has Zinka come up again? Are you going to bother me again? Well, settle down since you’ve already come, shaking me completely! In the meantime, I’ll pour some tea.” You can also play with shapes in your imagination, imagine thoughts in the form of text in different fonts, large and small, colored and with patterns. Watch how thoughts float in line. You can also try to exaggerate the idea. Let's say in your fantasies thoughts arise about how you can cut off your loved ones. Take this idea to the point of absurdity: “Yeah, she cut everyone up just like that, threw their intestines on the chandelier, and also bathed in blood! Have fun!”, “Wow, your imagination has run wild! Come on, surprise me again! What else can I think about that’s so terrible? Something is somehow weak, not impressive!” If you are well acquainted with your brain, most likely you know your anxious thoughts inside and out. Here you can try to mock your thoughts. “Hmm, another disaster scenario? Are you scaring me as usual? And you think I'll believe this nonsense? Come up with something realistic!” You can also evaluate your thought: “interesting thought,” “one of the points of view,” “good hypothesis.” Imagine another person in the place of your brain who shares his opinion with you. Your thoughts are just one of the points of view that your brain has the right to, but you don’t have to agree with it! Technique for separating yourself. Instead of thinking “I’m a loser,” you can replace it with “I notice the thought that I’m a loser,” “I wonder why I have thoughts that I’m a loser?” Let your thoughts be noticed. Usually you run from your thoughts, you don’t want to face them, but you try to answer them: “okay”, “okay”, “okay”, “I heard you”, “okay”. You don't have to agree with your thoughts, but you can show that you see them. Start singing your thoughts. Better yet, sing your thoughts in a joyful voice. You can use the motifs of New Year's songs. And it’s better to dance to the rhythm of the resulting song. Try saying your thoughts in a funny voice. Imagine that you are a cartoon character, what voice would he use to voice your thoughts? What would your thoughts sound like if you inhaled helium? Our brains are accustomed to you taking your thoughts seriously. He expects you to be afraid, so he adds fuel to the fire every time. When you start behaving unconventionally, it will cause confusion. How so? She was always afraid, but here she makes fun of me and mocks me? Shameless! And your anxiety will go away! Show your brain who's boss and stop falling for its tricks!
