"The thinking it took to get us into this mess is not the same thinking that is going to get us out of it." Albert Einstein

When one is down, it is easy to assume that our moods control our thoughts. Psychologists and therapists used to think that our moods controlled our thoughts. However, research has proven that our thoughts control our moods.
Everybody has stressors, it is how you interpret the stressors that make a difference. Self-talk is how we talk to ourselves. Everybody does it. It's called thinking. Cognitive distortions refer to those thoughts that are plausible but not correct or accurate. Click on this cognitive distortion link and start learning about them.
Rumination appears to be the foundation of depression. It is the "pilot light" that is in place to start a depression. Rumination means dwelling on bad events or bad situations over and over again. Sometimes those thoughts are "I am ashamed of myself" or perhaps "I should have said this or that." The thoughts could be thoughts of inferiority or resentment as well as other types. In Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) the event is replayed over and over again.
The combination of cognitive distortions and rumination may lead to a deep depression. To understand depression and addictions, look at the cognitive model for depression and the cognitive model for addiction on the following tabs.
"A man may dwell upon a thought so long that it may take him prisoner."
