If there was a person that followed you around all day every single day and constantly whispered criticism and abuse in your ear, do you think that would affect your mental wellbeing? Unless you're an imperturbable rock, the clear answer is yes. Unfortunately, this scenario is quite real for many people.

Our inner voice speaks to us all day long and it can either be a voice of positive encouragement or our own worst bully. In psychology, this voice is referred to as our "inner dialogue" or "self-talk", and one of the main purposes of psychological counseling is to reprogram this voice into becoming our ally.
