I'd suggest you read though a book on Cognitive Behavior Therapy if you are actually interested. Evidence suggests working through a book to be around as effective as any other intervention. I just did the same[1] and found the solutions extraordinarily useful, highly practical, and totally obvious in retrospect. Additionally, the approach itself deeply appeals to me an intellectual level - like what you'd arrive at if you attempted to turn Stoicism into contemporary practice.

I'm picturing a serene but negligent person who leaves a trail of chaos in their wake, but remains blissfully unaware.
