Abstract

Mental health has become a prominent issue in contemporary Indonesian society. Cognitive distortion is one of the mental health problems that is often considered normal by the public, even though it significantly affects the way individuals think about and interpret problems. This study aims to help the public better understand the symptoms, impacts, and ways of addressing cognitive distortions in everyday life. By using short stories as a medium, readers are expected to more easily comprehend cognitive distortions and develop empathy toward those who experience them. The author employs the theory of the Ten Forms of Twisted Thinking, which outlines various types of cognitive distortions present in human thinking, as well as The Daily Mood Log, which focuses on the process of reconstructing negative thoughts into healthier and more adaptive ones. These two theories support the writing of three short stories entitled Hari Baik Untuk Mati, Karyawan Teladan, and Mimpi Indah. Each short story features a different main character in terms of age, background, and personal conflict, but experience cognitive distortions.
