Blaming as a Cognitive Distortion: Why It Feels So Automatic

Blaming is a common cognitive distortion. It's a mental shortcut we use when something goes wrong. Instead of sitting with uncertainty, we search for someone or something to hold responsible. In this video, I explore how blaming can create a temporary sense of control, while subtly reinforcing a deeper sense of powerlessness. Cognitive distortions like blaming are part of being human. They’re patterns of thought we can learn to recognize and work with. Self-awareness without self-punishment is the foundation for navigating blame and other mental traps. This video is part of a short series exploring cognitive distortions in everyday life.
