Effect of Self-Focused Rumination on Mental Health
Self-focused rumination, the act of constantly thinking about oneself without intention, can significantly impact mental health. Research shows that when individuals engage in self-focused rumination, their moods tend to be negative and their self-esteem lower. This type of rumination can consume cognitive resources, hindering problem-solving abilities. Additionally, a link exists between self-focused rumination and feelings of helplessness or a victim mindset, perpetuating a cycle of negative thoughts.
