A coping mechanism which I have more or less discovered is being able to project an image of myself as a public employee. Since I'll be joining a government agency in the future, I want to show to my prospective employers that I am incorruptible, having a strong sense of integrity as well as ethics. I want to deal with clients equally and fairly, as well as with candor. As long as my desire to serve the general public takes precedence over other priorities (personal, family), I guess you could say that my SPD would be mitigated.
