đ Negative thoughts are not just âa bad mood.â
A chronic habit of replaying worries, grudges, and catastrophes in your head can actually wear the brain out.
When we keep thinking about the worst:
⢠levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) go up;
⢠cortisol worsens how neurons are nourished and blocks the formation of new connections;
⢠over time, this is linked to faster brain aging and a higher risk of dementia.
Scientists increasingly talk about ârepetitive negative thinkingâ as a risk factor: the more a person gets stuck in dark scenarios, the more their memory, attention, and clear thinking suffer.

đ What you can start doing now:
⢠catch the moments when youâre looping on the same negative thoughts;
⢠switch attention to action: a short walk, 4â6 breathing, one small step in real life;
⢠reduce the âfuel for negativityâ â doomâscrolling, lateânight news, toxic conversations.
The goal isnât to become âpermanently positive.â The goal is to stop feeding your brain with a stream of thoughts that slowly destroy it.
