National Erase Self-Negativity Day

April 10th, 2024

Some people think speaking negatively to themselves is a way for them to identify their downfalls or shortcomings and move forward. Even though we may believe negative self-talk is a reasonable and a harmless thing to do, this type of behavior can significantly damage self-esteem over time. We are here to tell you speaking negatively to ourselves is a habit. A bad habit. The good news is we can begin to erase the habit of negative self-talk starting today on National Erase Self-Negativity Day.

These words, if left unchecked, could potentially lead to mental health issues. It is important that we are aware of the five key types of negative self-talk.

  1. Complaining is voicing dissatisfaction about something.
  2. Criticizing is pointing out what you don’t like whether that’s about yourself, someone else or a situation.
  3. Concern can happen when we feel we are losing control, thus creating a spiral of negative thoughts.
  4. Commiserating is when we gather with our friends and family to share "life" experiences, including things that are upsetting.
  5. Catastrophizing is negative self-talk that paints a picture of the worst case scenarios in our mind and makes problems seem bigger than they really are.
