Naming the monsters lurking in my head helps me to keep them in their rooms.
One of my monsters was The Old Woman Who Hates Me, who would sit in a straight back chair in my head and glare at me. When I started to glare back, she began to shrivel away, unable to cope with me telling her that her opinion didn't matter.

Seriously, being able to pinpoint a reaction and knowing WHY you're having it is a massive help. Sometimes being able to name a thing means being able to shrug it off.

msbelle, writing a resentment down (or feeling resentment) does not necessarily mean you think it is justified or something you need to do something about or wrong or anything at all. It's just there, a feeling you don't control, a thought that arises, that's all. Crappy first draft of feelings, don't edit.
Cookie dough is assembled and chilling'. Poppy seeds are coming to a simmer. Everything's coming up hamentaschen
