314. The monsters (you create) in your head

I had this weird thing when I was a kid where I wouldn’t let my hand hang over the edge of my bed in case something was under there and grabbed it. When you were a kid, did you ever worry about some kind of something being in the closet or under your bed? But here’s the thing. I never had any reason to think something was under my bed. I didn’t have ptsd from something being in my past that had happened so it was something completely made up. Once the morning came, it was clear there was nothing under there, and my fear was for nothing. I still do that sometimes, but now I do it with grown up things. Whether it’s with having a hard conversation with someone or finding a weird looking mole on your chest. We have a tendency to create things in our head of what bad things could possibly happen only to find out that well, they aren’t so bad at all, at least not as bad as we created in our head.  Listen to the entire episode~  I love you guys!
