What is a parasitic thought?
A. A thought that blocks your brain
B. A thought that feeds on another thought
C. A thought that makes us suffer and prevents us from moving forward
Answer C :
A thought that causes you to suffer and prevents you from moving forward. This type of thought is
based on a story that your head tells you. It may be a past situation you’re thinking about or a future
situation you’re anticipating that hasn’t happened yet. Parasitic thinking doesn’t help you find solutions
to problems. Quite the opposite! It tends to drag you down and paralyze you. Conversely, useful
thinking is thinking based on your senses, takes place in the present moment and offers a possible
solution. When you’re sorting out your thoughts, you need to disregard the parasitic thoughts and take
action on the useful ones.

It’s all about actively relieving your suffering.
When you’re feeling stressed or anxious, what’s the best way to ease the pressure?
A. Watch your favourite TV show on repeat
B. Annoy your little brother, friends or your parents
C. Meditate
Answer C :
Meditate! Running away from your problem by doing mindless activities, keeping busy or acting it out
on others only pushes it away and solves nothing. Meditation allows you to take a break from your
thoughts by focusing on the present moment. You’ll be able to reconnect with your emotions and the
sensations in your body, as well as with what’s going on around you.
What clues might alert you that a friend or classmate is in distress?
A. They get angry over nothing and always seem sad
B. They suddenly don’t want to take part in any activities
C. All of the above
Answer C :
All of these answers! These signs are visible manifestations that a person isn’t doing well. When we experience distress, we don’t act like our normal selves; we are unable to function as before. Our
emotions, behaviour and way of thinking all change – and not for the better. If these changes persist, if
they become intense, if they prevent us from functioning and there are no signs of improvement, it
could be depression.
