>I suppose the "card thing" I am talking about could be like a "mantra" of sorts that could be easy to memorize and be effective as well. Thanks.
Yes, a mantra with meditation techniques is recommended as well. Taped or written thoughts in addition, anything you don't have to come up with at "the time" because your anxiety will over ride it. This is the basis of the CBT programs I've been in and I hoped that by practicing all of the above plus the rational self talk and exposure therapy that I would recover. However it doesn't seem to matter how many times I do the program or read the books or practice the meditation I make no progress.
The past postive effect of he MAOI's still haunt me. Knowing that one pill could do what all the practicing in the world could not, leaves me searching for another medicine like that.
