Another example of unhelpful thinking...

All or nothing thinking continued...

People can also use all or nothing thinking to understand the behaviour of others. For example: “My partner should know I cannot do that, he is always getting things wrong” and “My doctor said my tests were unclear, she is useless”. More helpful thoughts could be: “My partner gets most things right and he didn’t mean to upset me” and “My doctor has arranged for more tests and explained she will speak to her colleagues about my symptoms”.

Any thoughts of your own on similar situations?
