Just be AWARE when you are under the influence of the disorder. If you find your emotions are under attack, backtrack and think: "Am I reacting to the disorder or someone's interpretation of me while I am displaying the symptoms". And next, don't take anything anyone says personally. It takes practice. If you learn to think critically, you will have command of the disorder. You have to defeat your impulses. UP_VOTED and happy to follow you.
