Your Brain Is Lying to You About Your Body
Core Cognitive Distortions (Body Image Edition):
All-or-Nothing Thinking
“If my body isn’t perfect, it’s unacceptable.”
Mental Filtering
Fixating on one “flaw” and ignoring everything else.
Mind Reading
“Everyone is judging my body.” (No evidence, just fear.)
Catastrophising
“If I gain weight, everything will fall apart.”
Comparison Distortion
Measuring your body against edited, unrealistic standards.
Emotional Reasoning
“I feel ugly, so I must be ugly.”
Should Statements
“My body should look different by now.”
Labeling
Turning your body into an identity: “I’m disgusting / lazy / gross.”
