Cognitive distortions or 'thinking traps' cloud our thinking by introducing biases and inaccuracies into our perception of reality. Thinking Traps are automatic and unconscious patterns of thinking that can skew our perception of reality. Because they are automatic, this can make them feel much more real, but our thoughts are not always true. By recognizing and understanding these distortions, we can challenge and correct them, allowing us to make more accurate assessments of situations, make better decisions, and maintain healthier mental well-being. The Realistic Thinking Machine is just one way to assess how your thought may be clouded by one or more cognitive distortions or 'thinking traps'. This tool is based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
