This sound like Barney from How I met your mother.
But are you sure it isn't your general mental state that is able to handle it?
E.g. the chemicals in your brain allow you to reconfigure yourself like that?
I haven't been able to reframe anything, even though years of therapy, however I have been in different states, that I think are clearly introduced chemically.
E.g. I go running, I get a high for 20 minutes, I feel like I can handle anything and I'm on top of the World, however after 40 minutes I get a comedown and I despair everything. Unable to fight any of it.
Similar things with drugs. If I feel bad, I feel bad. If I feel good, I feel good. If somehow I am feeling bad and feeling like I could feel good again, it's probably because my chemical state changed to allow for that...
I feel like I'm slave to my chemical state, and my thoughts whether they are productive or not productive are coming after the fact, and I'm observer to all of it. When I try to reframe or fight the thoughts consciously it just causes unease and tension and will make it worse.
