> Simplifying one's life is necessary. Stress avoidance. Trying to develop/retain good lifestyle factors: sleep, diet, exercise, relaxation. Keeping occupied but not too occupied - it's a delicate balance. CBT/DBT provides ways to cope/live with the illness even when it does not cause substantial symptom relief. Trying not to beat myself too much over the head when it is too hard to do these things.
These things work for me, too.

Gosh. Join the club. :-(
