Storytelling

Another bad habit that plagued me through the years was storytelling.  I think you all can see, since my self-esteem was already low, the stories I would tell myself in my head would not be too positive.  Like other posts, it was the beginning of a very bad cycle.  An incident would happen, I would make it worst by letting my imagination run wild further damaging myself.  Negativity breeds even more negativity.  Nowadays, I try and cut the stories down or at least add a positive spin to it.
