a thinking error that feels completely reasonable while you are inside it. one bad thing happens and your brain turns it into “this always happens.” someone seems distant and suddenly it becomes “they hate me.” you make one mistake and somehow arrive at “i am a failure.” the strange part is that the brain is not necessarily trying to lie to you. it is trying to simplify reality. sometimes it just simplifies it into something much worse.
