What is the theory behind this Bad Thoughts lead to Depression Feelings Disorder?

Our negative thoughts make us feel uncomfortable emotions which in turn makes us act in unhelpful ways. It is thus crucial for individuals to understand and be aware of this connection so that they can actively try to replace negative thoughts before they begin to affect their feeling and then the following unhelpful actions.
