Catastrophising in Psychology

When someone assumes that the worst will happen.

Someone might worry that they’ll fail an exam. Or when you think you will have a bad PH launch.

From there, you might assume that failing an exam means you’re a bad student & bound to never pass.

This might conclude that you'll never be financially stable. 😰

A person who is catastrophising will not be able to acknowledge that. 🤷🏻‍♂️
