I’m new to your Substack as of this morning & just wanted to say that your writing is so impactful. I’ve taken in a few of your articles already (the SLOW down felt like a warm hug ☺️) and I’m so thankful to have come across you!

Catastrophizing became such a problem for me in recent years. It's affected me psychologically in many ways (over-analysing interactions and worrying about them, fretting about the planet and world events, imposter syndrome - the works). I think the tricky thing about this one is that it is more difficult to share, even with trusted friends. Spilling out the details of your spiralling thoughts doesn't come naturally and makes you sound insane, so it's easy to keep bottled up inside.
