I didn't even realize it was happening. I hadn't noticed how worry and fear were taking over and robbing me of peace of mind. One night I started paying attention to why I couldn't fall asleep. I was shocked at what I discovered. I discovered I was a bully. No, I wasn't bullying anyone but I was bullying myself around. My self-talk was unreal.
