You’ve used terms like “mind reading” and “core beliefs,” so it sounds like you already know some CBT. That’s a real strength. But it may also explain the frustration: you can spot the thinking error and still feel just as low. Insight alone rarely changes a core belief. Beliefs like “I’m not good enough” usually form early in life and get stronger every time we act on them. They weaken through repeated new experiences, not just through understanding them. How this works in practice: Mind reading. When you catch yourself thinking “they think I’m stupid,” write the thought down. Then list the actual evidence for it and against it. Ask: “What else could they be thinking?” You’re not forcing positive thinking; you’re checking facts. Behavioural experiments. Test the belief in real life. For example, share an opinion in a conversation and notice what actually happens, not what you predicted. Self-esteem. Every night, write down three things you did, however small. Low self-esteem filters out evidence of competence, so you have to collect it on purpose. Depression. Don’t wait for motivation before you act. Plan one small activity that gives you a sense of pleasure or achievement each day. Activity usually comes first and mood follows.

Kindly consult a psychologist.

My First Q is how you have diagnosed DEPRESSION. Now a days people are habitual of googling or help of AI and start relating self. Must stop if you are one. Unless proper history is taken I don't wish to suggest any specific therapy. Every feelings have some cause and what's that??? Try to locate that first.

Not sure what you meant by mind reading disorder. Please dont give names and tags to your conditions. Wait for a qualified person to assess you and then decide.

Hi, how are you feeling right now? It takes awareness to notice your own thinking patterns, and that's a real strength. "Mind reading" isn't a disorder. It's a common thinking habit in which we assume we know what others are thinking about us, and it usually assumes the worst. It tends to go hand in hand with low self-esteem and depression, because negative core beliefs act like a filter that colors everything you see. Try this: when you catch yourself thinking "they must think I'm...", write the thought down, then write two other possible explanations. Also treat one small win a day as evidence against the old belief, however minor it seems. Core beliefs like "I'm not good enough" are rarely random. They usually form early, from specific experiences, and they can be changed, but not just by telling yourself to think positively. There's more to look at here, including where your beliefs began, what keeps them alive today, and how the depression and the self-doubt feed each other. CBT and schema-focused therapy are built for exactly this. A therapy session can help you trace those beliefs and slowly replace them with ones that are fairer to you.

It sounds like you are experiencing significant emotional distress characterized by depressive symptoms, low self-esteem, negative core beliefs, and cognitive distortions such as "mind reading" (assuming you know what others are thinking, usually negatively, without sufficient evidence). These feelings are often tied together in a cycle: deep-seated negative core beliefs (e.g., "I am not good enough") can fuel automatic thoughts like mind reading, which in turn deepens depression and lowers self-confidence. The good news is that these negative thinking patterns and beliefs are learned over time, which means they can also be unlearned with the right support and strategies.

Depression and anxiety are not difficult to treat provided you see a qualified and experienced therapist

Depression and anxiety can feed distorted thoughts. You can get in touch with a psychologist. Cognitive behaviour therapy is effective for working on negative core beliefs and low self esteem

It sounds like you're going through a really heavy time, with low mood and low self-esteem. Just so you know, "mind reading" isn't a disorder. It's something many of us do, where we feel sure we know what others are thinking about us, and it's usually negative. Say a friend takes a while to reply, and your mind jumps to "they find me boring." Most of the time they were just busy, but the thought feels so real that it chips away at your confidence. The good news is these patterns can change with the right support.

Your symptoms resemble depression and cognitive distortions like "mind reading." Believing others think negatively of you is consistent with low self-esteem, which a professional evaluation can help address.

Hi..It sounds like you are carrying a really heavy weight right now. Dealing with depression, low confidence, and low self-esteem is exhausting on its own, but when your mind is also playing tricks on you—making you feel like you can read other people's minds—it can feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. Please know that you are not broken, and you are not alone in experiencing this. What you are describing is a well-known psychological pattern, and it can be changed.

It can be managed with the correct approach. Consult when possible
