re: describing the challenges I face today in a more neutral way, I'm a really big fan of the storywriter step back. I think I just came up with that term, but definitely not the idea.

That is, I like to imagine that whatever is bothering me is actually happening to a character in one of my stories. Then I image all the ways other characters might perceive "his" problem. It helps me to set realistic expectations for myself and others with whatever is bothering me, as well as managing some of the snowballing that can happen with anxiety when problems seem bigger than they are.
