I just wanted to make a suggestion that what really helped me a lot through those times was a regular program of intense exercise; 70-80 mile bike rides and running 10 to 15 miles in the mountains. Anyway, it really helped stabilize my runaway thoughts. I did something like that at least three times a week for a couple of decades. I preferred outdoor solitary exercise to the alternatives because it was most freeing, but this was just my personal preference. Anyway, for what it is worth...
