Overgeneralization
In this cognitive distortion, we come to a general conclusion based on a single incident or a single piece of evidence. If something bad happens only once, we expect it to happen over and over again.

This way of thinking is often present in depression. Cognitive therapy is based on the idea that people exhibit abnormal behavior because of the way they think. This approach does not assume that conflict or anxiety is the root of the problem. Cognitive therapy is frequently used to treat depression and emotional problems.
