Apparently, talking about yourself in the third person, acting as a narrator for your own life, helps you deal with stress. It is well demonstrated in this video from Good Mythical Morning. Here's a link to the study and to another article about it. I wonder what other parts of my psyche this could help. Could it help dieting? Should I get up in the morning and say something like "D. is in control of her diet" "D. is looking forward to exercising today." ? Hmm. It's funny how many of these little tricks there are. This one is definitely worth a
try!
