A few years ago the VA taught me CBSST techniques: Cognitive Behavioral Social Skills Training. The idea is to recognize symptoms as soon as they attack, and counter-attack by substituting positive thoughts for evil symptoms. I have modified these techniques by thinking of loving relationships when the evil symptoms strike. The love drives out the evil, and order prevails. This isn't always successful, but it works sometimes, and in general that is enough.

Positive thoughts back at you, and best of luck being good to yourself!

CBSST, according to the people who taught me the techniques: CBSST in Detail
Thanks for this!
