Test Avoid dysfunctional thought patterns

QUESTION 1: WHAT ARE DYSFUNCTIONAL THOUGHTS?

Dysfunctional thoughts are often the result of an erroneous understanding of reality
Normally through the cognitive process, what we hear and see are our most active and involuntary senses
It is very common when we fall into this kind of pensive limbo where we constantly analyze what is going on around us that we gradually move away from our reality, dissociating ourselves from the truth
Such involuntary thoughts are often very difficult to control

Our most active cognitive system, vision and hearing constantly receive too much information from the environment resulting in stimuli for our functioning
The way it works is based on a wrong interpretation of what we supposedly see and hear, assuming it as a reality that affects our personality in a negative way
Hearing voices, noises or seeing silhouettes and shadows are natural consequences of an excess of contained information that causes failures in our apprehensive memory
We usually suffer from this disorder after having experienced traumatic events that transform our previous thinking criteria

Most often, experiencing distorted thought patterns ends up greatly influencing our moods and provoking symptoms of anxiety
Suffering from depression is one of the consequent ailments of the dysfunctionality in our thoughts since we can fall into the uncertainty of feeling vulnerable to life situations
Along with this goes a great burden of unwillingness to interact in a normal way both within the family and in the life of society
Another negative element for our state of mind is demotivation and lack of interest in our personal projects for fear of failure or for mistakenly thinking that it is not functional for us

Dysfunctional thoughts are also involuntary in nature and end up influencing our temperament
Affected temperament caused by dysfunctional thoughts can trigger angry outbursts during communication with other people
The increase of fear in people who unknowingly suffer from this type of disorder leads them to elements of psychological violence with the people around them, gradually deteriorating their relationships
Our temperament is the result of how much we do or do not understand our internal processes

There are therapies focused on people suffering from dysfunctional thoughts to help through guided cognitive techniques treatment
This treatment technique consists of the client recording his involuntary dysfunctional thoughts in order to identify and recognize them
As a consequence, an exercise based on questions about one's own negative thinking is usually applied
It is a treatment that requires the indispensable activity of the client, since it is he who performs the exercises through the guide, thus giving him the possibility to find his own solutions

The objective of keeping the client in an active state during the therapy process plays an important role in the search for solutions because it is necessary that with the guidance of the client, he/she is able to re-modify the process
Many psychologists nowadays choose to recommend the use of didactic resources in their sessions that connect the client with a simple operation but lead to logical reasoning about
In some cases, for the purpose of an interesting and appealing therapy, they recommend the approach to the arts or artistic environments to stimulate the search for favorable responses to such processes
We all seek to surround ourselves with a stable and peaceful environment
