Their brain wasn't broken — it was distorted.
𝐂𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 are automatic thought patterns that twist reality. The brain isn't lying on purpose — it genuinely believes what it's telling itself. And for kids whose emotional regulation is still developing, these distortions don't just cause momentary distress. They can harden into core beliefs:
"𝘐'𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩."
"𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘴."
"𝘐 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘭."
Left unchecked, that's the foundation anxiety builds on.
That's why I created a clear and simple infographic to show exactly what's going on inside an anxious kid's mind.
It covers:
10 common cognitive distortions fueling kids' anxiety
General strategies to start untwisting those thoughts
Here's a quick taste of the distortions to watch for:
