Unfortunatly, none - the only thing that has ever helped me feel better is drugs - self help books and talk therapy havent ever helped.
I tried to explain it to my doctor like this - if I had a compound fracture of the leg, you could explain the reasons I was in agony to me in any detail you wanted, but I'd still be in pain, the only thing that would stop that was a pain killer.
Same with my anxiety/depression, I have good insight, I know its all in my head, and that I'm not going to die from it, but knowing that doesnt make it any easier to put up with
