Step 1 - Identify the thought and if possible, why you’re having it.
The first step to challenging a thought is to identify it. If it’s helpful to you, consider writing it out.
Example 1: My friend doesn’t want to be friends anymore. I think this because we usually talk a lot more and lately they’ve been quieter.
Example 2: I’m a failure and can’t do anything. I think this because I messed up and got a bad grade.
Step 2 - Look for exceptions
This involves looking out for similar situations that had ended differently than is being assumed.
Example 1: This has happened before, and it turned out that they were busier than usual with final exams.
Example 2: When my friends get bad grades, I never think they are a failure.
Step 3 - Find evidence to the contrary
Example 1: Last week, she told me how important I was to her and that she missed me.
Example 2: I’ve done a lot of things successfully. I helped a friend through a breakdown yesterday. I got a good grade on another assignment. I passed my drivers test.
Step 4 - Replace it with an alternate thought
When it comes to an alternate thought, if you can put a positive spin on it that’s great. But I find that hard, so I try and find a neutral thought.
Example 1: It’s likely my friend has something going on and she will reach out to me when she’s ready.
Example 2: Failing one assignment doesn’t make me a failure. I’m not defined by any one thing.
Spock/Kirk fanfiction recs for @merryfinches (and anyone else who’s interested)
I am a TOS girlie but I do enjoy a reboot/AOS fic too.
Something Smart to Do - kianspo
A very sweet M-rated 5+1 where Spock and Kirk get fake-married on the regular.
Treasures - yeaka
E-rated Pon Farr fic. Romantic but also hot as hell. Cute idea about Jim serving on a Vulcan ship and all the other Vulcans being jealous of Spock.
The Lotus Eaters - aldora89
A novel length fic that is genuinely one of my favourite works of fiction ever. The world building is incredible and the plot is so gripping. And the romance! *swoon*
The Squire of Eros - aldora89
Another brilliant work by this writer. This fic really perfectly captures the tone of TOS and is really sweet and funny.
The Bond - WhatIfImaMermaid
A sweet sexy fic featuring amnesia and fake/real bonding.
master of a nothing place - strzyga
This one is basically PWP lol. Spock goes feral on an away mission. Kirk is there for the ride.
I’ll add some more if I remember!
I keep forgetting i have a tumblr
