For the other stuff that used to trigger me, I've just had to talk myself through it telling myself that it's not like the last time and then, eventually, I get over it...

Any chance that, as you continue to do that, the upsets themselves and the process of clearing them up will become so familiar to you that you can breeze through them in seconds or milliseconds instead of hours and minutes? That would be sort of in line with my own experience, though most of my "incidents" haven't been as severe as what you just described, nor knocked me for as big a loop.
I could give you a specific example but it would take a bit of telling and would distract too much from this topic. PM me if you want to hear it, salukigirl. I'd expect it to be pretty non-triggering, btw.
