we cant tell you what will work for you but can tell you what words for us...

(using your examples)...

in me number 1 is called a panic attack. Tools I use... breathing, positive self talk / affirmations... (breath, I am ok, breath, I am just having a panic attack, i am ok, breath, just keep breathing, breath, sunshine imagine I am out in the warm bright sunshine, breath.....)

In me number 2 is called normal perception difficulties due to having MS (a physical health problem that I have) Tools I use ...I close my eyes and remind myself what I am seeing may not be the same in my "minds eye" we all view ourselves different depending upon our moods and at the moment my minds eye is viewing me differently than what is reality. its just the meds and MS now open my eyes and focus on reality not my mental image/hallucination.

in me number 3 is called genetics. I sound just like some of my siblings and parents sometimes depending upon my moods, what words I am using and how I am saying those words. my brother says the word hello by saying hullo, I say hello and my southern sister says helloyall or hiyall. the result sometimes I say hullo sometimes I say hello and sometimes I say helloyall or hiyall. the tool I use is when I find I am talking like my relatives I breath and remind myself to talk like me,

in me number 4 is called hallucinations. I have many problems that can cause a person to have psychosis (hallucinations or delusions) like MS, bipolar disorder, depression, and medications that can cause me to have visual and auditory hallucinations. the tool I use here is contacting my treatment providers. they make medication changes/adjustments and Im soon back on track.
