Have you ever found yourself worrying about possible disastrous outcomes, even though in reality they would be most unlikely? Thoughts going round and round? Emotions taking over rational thinking? Worried about the next on call, or feeling unable to progress certain practical procedures? Then you might have been catastrophising. Harry Glasstone tells me that in catastrophising emotions take over, and instead of being rational and considered, we obsessively focus on the worst possible outcomes. But whilst considering a range of outcomes is no bad thing, in catastrophising emotions take over control our actions more than rational thinking. He tells me how to identify when you might be catastrophising, and that the key to getting out of it is to convert emotional responses into logical approaches.
