Peak Performance Mindset with Megan Devito

Ep 77 - Why Would I Think That? - An Episode on Intrusive Thoughts


Listen Later

I should cut off my fingers right now. 
*Me chopping vegetables.*

Your brain comes up with around 60,000 thoughts a day.
99% of them are untrue and thought out of habit.

When you have a thought that has an emotion attached to it,
it grabs your attention.

Especially when it is dark, or scary.
These are called intrusive thoughts and they will freak you out if you give them too much attention.

😱 You'll think you're going crazy,
😱 Dangerous to yourself and other people,
😱 Wonder if you're having premonitions,
😱 And get more worked up and afraid, thinking the same thought over and over again.

You can hear more about intrusive thoughts and how to handle them in this week's episode of the More Than Anxiety podcast.
