In the quiet corners of our minds, we all harbour thoughts that scare us. Thoughts that are dark, negative, and sometimes downright terrifying.
I remember a time when I was consumed by such thoughts. It was during a particularly challenging period in my life. I had lost my job, my relationship was on the rocks, and I felt like I was spiralling into a pit of despair.
Every day, I woke up to a barrage of negative thoughts. Thoughts of failure, of worthlessness, of a future that seemed bleak and hopeless.
I was scared. I felt alone. I didn’t know what to do.
