Get in the habit of writing down three things you're grateful for every day. Studies show that in a two-minute span of time, done over 21 days in a row, you can actually rewire your brain.

Understand that it takes time for your brain and neural pathways to detach. You're not going crazy - it's just a process, and that process takes time.
