Rumination

[u/Significant_Rush_293]

General advice on ending ruminating negative thoughts (learned through CBT) .... Train your mind to focus on 2 facts instead:

1. You can't possibly change the past. So, why waste the mental energy thinking about it?
2. You can't possibly predict the future. So, stop wasting your time predicting doomsday outcomes.

Practice these 2 and you become more adept at living in "the here and now".
