SELF MIND READING ASSUMPTION 84 words
Mind Reading Thought Reframe
You have decided someone is judging you based on one look or one short reply, and now you cannot shake it. This separates the actual evidence from the version you have invented, offers an equally plausible reading, and weighs the cost of treating a guess as fact. For when your head has run ahead of what you really know.
I have been telling myself that {PERSON} is thinking or feeling {ASSUMED_THOUGHT} about me, based on {EVIDENCE_OR_SIGNAL}.
Help me examine this assumption. What is the actual evidence for this interpretation versus an equally valid alternative? What might explain {EVIDENCE_OR_SIGNAL} if it had nothing to do with me? What is the cost of treating an assumption as a fact in this situation? And if I genuinely need to know what {PERSON} is thinking, what is the most direct and least catastrophising way to find out? ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
