Morning my darlings,
I'll be studying all day so I thought I'd share some of what I'm trying to commit to memory.
Distorted Cognitions:
Catastrophizing
Magnification
Over-generalization
Jumping to conclusions
Selective Negative Focus
Emotional Reasoning
Shoulds
Polarized Thinking / All or none thinking
Taking things personally
Good morning Gina, I'm studying too. Heres whats on my agenda:
Catastrophizing that my house is freakin destroyed
Magnification that there really isn't enough money for Christmas.
Over-generalization, thinking that yeah, most men are a*******.
Jumping to conclusions, that most men are a*******
Selective Negative Focus, no brainer there. LMAO
Emotional Reasoning, and why men lack it.
Shoulds, hmmm, should I bury his body in the front or back yard.
Polarized Thinking / All or none thinking, SAY WHAT?
Taking things personally, oh yeah MOST men are a******* and it has nothing to do with me personally.
I said most, that frees me of all liabilty and responsibility of any man assuming that I called him an a******.
Michelle

... and no jury would convict you. LOL
All or none thinking is assuming that a situation will be wonderful or terrible with no middle ground.

Anti-Male Bias & the 19th Amendment
White Males Become Sub-citizens
Men pay 115% of federal taxes.
Men are one fifth as likely as women to be acquitted of the same crime.
Men are 16% more likely to be imprisoned for the same crime.
Men receive prison sentences almost three times as long as women for the same crime.
Men are half as likely as women to use a knife or to contract to kill their spouse.
Men are one seventh as likely as women to kill their children.
Men are half as likely as women to have a fatal traffic accident.
The increase in the male suicide rate killed an additional 573,307 men.
The increase in the male murder rate killed an additional 475,000 men.
The rapid increase in divorce increased premature mortality rates and killed an additional 20 million American men.
MADD increased annual traffic fatalities and kills an additional 2,670 men annually.
Reduced alcohol consumption increased the coronary-related mortality rate and kills an additional 30,000 men annually.
Feminist jurisprudence encouraged women to false allegations which imprisoned 1.3 million innocent American men.
So there!

LMAO!! Gina, That is way more then this tired brain can handle.
Timathina, you can post whatever you want.
Michelle, just make sure the life insurance papers are in order. All would be for naught if they aren't.
Right now my entire life feels out of control. Mounds of dirty laundry, empty fridge, house trashed and me laying on the couch again.
But mental illness can be fun!
Beck
Edit to add, good points all, Cowinkle! LMAO. Likely funny to only me. Sorry in advance.

Danny, I'll look for some statistics to back up my claim later, for right now I'll leave you with this...
Chuck E Cheese is a male. I rest my case.

That is pretty damning evidence..forgot about Chuck..
Beck, You've fallen into the "shoulds"
Danny, You're taking things personally.
Me, I'm catastrophizing and thinking in all or nothing.

Michelle, Selective Negative Focus (this is the distortion I think gratitude lists are meant to counteract; though this morning you will probably say, "f*** gratitude.")
Tim, LMAO!!! That's perfect.
Tim, LMAO!!! That's perfect.

OMG - I was thinking as reading Gina's first post that's an awesome topic...and then I got down to surfer boy's visual and had to pick myself off of the floor due the fact that I fell out of my chair laughing.
Thank you all for your insightful messages and bringing laughter into my heart this morning.
Too funny ~

Tim, Go post that on the Cafe thread. Our waitresses. ROFL
Beck, I'm reframing your cognitions for you. You should get rest today. It's not the end of the world if your house doesn't get cleaned this weekend. You've had a hard week and you're sick for God's sake. Take care of yourself.
Love you.
P.S. Just saw your edit. Cowinkle. ROFLMAO!!! You're hilarious, Beck, even when you're not feeling 100%.
