[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 763051, member: 1550"] I was told that people who catastastrophize can't help it...it is the first thing their mind grabs onto, which they need therapy to change...there are ways to change ones default, but you don't just learn that the worse case scenario doesn't happen. Your mind can still go straight to catastrophizing, even if your worst fear never happens. Often people with cptsd or anxiety or depression are more prone to doing this and catastrophizing makes the other conditions worse. I hope your son gets good help and can change his catastrophic thinking. It is truly horrible. I think, as a group, people who come to this forum tend to catastrophize. Maybe people who do not catastrophize have an easier time with wayward adult kids. Hugs and love. [/QUOTE]
