Stories, Catastrophizing,& Reframing
Reframing isn't "everything is fine." It isn't a pep talk. Reframing doesn't hand you a positive result. It helps to change the story you're telling yourself. It's not always tidy. The first few times you try it, it can feel a little silly. That's okay. It's going to feel unfamiliar before it feels natural, the same way any new habit does.
