I did this when I was a teenager and it was surprisingly effective at helping me get out of a depressive period.
Instead of barking I would drown out the negative with a small, pre-thought up, positive sentence about myself. When I caught the negative thoughts, I'd drown them out with it in my head.
i do it with little songs or like jazz scatting (lol).
But it doesn't help for nighttime lying in bed (especially if my partner is asleep) - so for that I use the method where you consciously check in and stop moving and relax each muscle in your body as granulary as you can - toes, heels, tops of feet, ankles, calves... all the way up to head.
I think she's just smart enough to not live her life in the public eye. Her Wikipedia entry shows she pops up every once in a while, most recently in 2020.
I don't get how someone can worry about this when they're in a relationship. There's clearly nothing that wrong with them if they have living proof of the opposite standing right there.
Haven't tried this method yet, but what the heck. You snooze you lose.

People think I'm weird because I meow randomly but I am actually weird because I meow to interrupt thoughts I don't wanna have
I whish i would just meow... Im just screaming randomly
I randomly start singing swear words, but I've learned to do it quietly
I just start to curse ._.

Thank you. My favorite thing, can never not think of it
All of Hyperbole and a Half was great.
I hope the author's doing okay. From what I understand she was struggling with some pretty severe depression, which is why she stopped posting.

If they can’t handle me at my worst (insufferable), then they don’t deserve me at my best (tolerable)

A love relationship is different from a work relationship or a friendship. They require different skills, functions and have different stakes.
