Black-and-white or polarized thinking / All or nothing thinking
Looking at life in all-or-nothing categories. Either things are a success or a failure; either they are good or bad; there is no in-between, no good enough or partial success.
I love sitting on the couch all day. I will die from obesity.

Overgeneralization
Someone who overgeneralizes makes faulty generalizations from insufficient evidence. Even if something bad happens only once, it is expected to happen over and over again.
The new video game I'm most excited about playing has been delayed. It's never coming out.

Mental filtering
Filtering distortions occur when an individual dwells only on the negative details of a situation and filters out the positive aspects.
I am tall, and I don't know if I'll ever find someone who will love me for me.

Jumping to conclusions: mind reading
Inferring a person's possible or probable (usually negative) thoughts from their behavior and nonverbal communication; taking precautions against the worst suspected case without asking the person.
People assume that I'm more outgoing than my twin because I teach, but then they're disappointed when I'm an introvert.

Labeling and mislabeling
A form of overgeneralization; attributing a person's actions to their character instead of to an attribute. Rather than assuming the behaviour to be accidental or otherwise extrinsic, one assigns a label to someone or something that is based on the inferred character of that person or thing.
Even though I have a masters degree, I still can't find a job! I'm a total failure as a functioning adult.

Discounting the positive
Rejecting positive experiences by insisting they "don't count" for some reason or other.
