Hi currently writing an article about the DOOM LOOP which is an actual thing in organizational behavior.
Guess what? yelling at people and telling them they're not stressed enough or worried enough DOESN'T ACTUALLY HELP YOU EXIT THE DOOM LOOP.
The thing that DOES help you get out of the DOOM LOOP is taking small actions that help you feel supported and/or help you remember something you did that activates an authentic sense of pride about your skills/abilities.
So taking time to have breakfast, or making your bed,...
or doing something nice for someone else (coffee?) Or things that create small repetitive motor skills (think adult coloring books) actually help you exit the DOOM LOOP.
Doubling down on disaster scenarios or being sarcastic DOES. NOT. ALLEVIATE. APATHY. and is harmful.
