Probably every person has found himself in unpleasant situations.
Some people quickly forget about misadventures, while others constantly “replay” negative memories in their heads.
What should you do if you can’t get your mind off these thoughts?
It turns out that the brain can be helped to forget about unpleasant things. There is one interesting psychological technique.
How to forget about unpleasant things
Let's imagine a situation: you once said something wrong. Or you were publicly ridiculed. Or you experienced a tragedy.
Now you constantly "play over" the difficult situation in your head. You can't get distracted.
In such a situation, oddly enough, you need to completely “live” the bad memory.
Don't force yourself to forget about what happened. If your brain "demands" to remember something in all details, then do it.
You will be able to calm down and get rid of anxiety only if you remember what happened well.
This approach helps to speed up the fading of negative emotions.
If the technique was not effective, then try to "scroll" the memory again, but imagine everything in black and white. And then - without sound. And then the unpleasant memory will gradually "erase".
