What helps 3: Not Talking At All

 Find your local Quaker meeting or a meditation group and sit still in silence for an hour. If you prefer, spend some time by yourself in nature. I came across a quote some time ago that said: "All the trouble in the world comes from a man not being able to sit alone with himself in a room." The other side is that, if you can sit quietly with yourself or with others, tremendous good can come from it. What good? Try it a few times to find out. For you, it might be different. 
For me, I begin to feel more at home in myself. Difficulties do not disappear but I feel more solid and competent towards them.
