Which of these steps do you take to minimize stress? Change the Game - Next time your in a similar situation or interact with that person deliberately do something differently. React in another way...anything that is productive. See if the outcome changes in response to your changes.

Approach the Situation with Curiosity - Start to diagnose what happens in the exchange that bothers you so much. Take an Interested Observer approach rather than being sucked in emotionally & just reacting.

Recognize the Triggers - Don't wait until you are in full-fledged dread mode. Instead observe the triggers as they begin & talk to yourself more objectively about them. Turn your attention to what's happening rather than fearing the interaction.
