You handled that harassment really well, better than I ever could.

It’s that kneejerk reactionary anger that we have to be careful of.
Someone insults us and our negative self-talk goes into meltdown.
If we can just be a curious observer when this happens, but no if you’re like me, I “don’t say anything, just stew”
Instead if I could just treat myself as a third person “Jack feels insulted. He called Jack a loser but Jack knows he’s not a loser because only people who use that word as an insult are losers. Anyway, loser is a word no longer in his vocab.”
