Maybe I just took my eye off the ball a little bit and it crept back in that these things are always there, but I've learned how to control them, not to just deny them, but control them and see, I mean, I'm already doing better. As I said, I'm just going to repeat one thing. The biggest step so far is that I'm aware of it.

I've become aware of it. And now I'm putting the spotlight on it versus on this other thing. And then the other thing that I've been trying to do, you talk about trying to break out of it, is because it makes me uncomfortable, instead of just banishing the thought, skittering it away and thinking about something else, I look right at it and I just generally Occam's razor it.

I just, just to stop in the tracks and look at it and try to bring it out again into the light is something that I'm really trying to work on more and more. Yeah. Because yeah, I'm getting full. Yeah.

Why? Oh. Why would you? Oh, no! Oh, my God, are those ants making fun of me? Do those ants know that they're not really scary?

I got them all. If you're a new listener, I have an irrational phobia of ants, and Pete is what's known as the worst. Yeah.
