 * from   -> Cognitive_therapy
 * to     -> Cognitive distortion
 * According to www.alleydog.com Dysfunctional Belief Systems are defined as negative thought patterns exhibited by individuals with depression and other related mental health concerns.
 * The lead of Cognitive distortion states: A cognitive distortion is an exaggerated or irrational thought pattern involved in the onset or perpetuation of psychopathological states, such as depression and anxiety.

These definitions are not equivalent as cognitive distortion appears to lead to depression and dysfunctional beliefs appears to result from depression. However, cognitive distortion is a well defined, common search term and dysfunctional belief is not. The redirect to cognitive distortion may not be perfect, but it is an improvement over linking to cognitive therapy. WP:PERFECTION Jared.h.wood (talk) 17:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
