I definitely try to approach them diplomatically YET FIRM while they are pushing my limit so they have warning all along. I did have to learn how to be diplomatic & not just blow up at people. It was a wake up call as to just how far my ex had pushed me that my reactions to everyone at that point were to blow up first. It was a good lesson to learn & as I calmed down it was much easier to approach everyone in a much calmer way. I was like that glass that was filled to the top & one more drop from anyone, I would dump. Now my stress glass is almost empty & I am back to responding much more calmly.

I used my over reactions as learning experiences to change rather than feeling guilty about them
