היסח הדעת, don't dwell on it
use the mind to think of something else and better yet thoughts of torah Torah (my understanding of a letter from the Lubavitcher Rebbe)

@Tzvi5 easier said than done but I'm trying. It keeps coming back though. I get rid of it for a few hours but it eventually comes back. It's bothering me a lot more often now than over the past few months, though there were rough patches then also.

It's a lot easier if your mind is already filled with torah.

NNot much time to post but I just want to write out my kabalos for the next two days to give myself the added mechayiv. I will bli neder: 1 say the Yom of the the day of the week in tehilim.  2 learn 1 daf gemara with rashi  3 will not go in to certain area of my house unless directed to and I can't get out of it.        
I hope to report back on chol hamoed and to make renew for the rest of bein hazmanim. Wishing a good and clean Yom tov to all.

The good news first or the bad... Boruch Hashem I made it to day 96. Boruch Hashem I fell on day 97 and day 98 and day 99 boruch Hashem since then I've been clean. It was definitely easier the first time but I hope that I'm stronger after this fall so it will have at least accomplished something good. I have to thank all GYE members for helping me get to 96 clean and its only thanks to you that I managed to get back on track after "only" 3 days I can't remember a fall ever being this short before.

Your post shows a healthy mind BH. Firstly, you showed staying clean for an extended period of time is possible, something that so many of us simply did not believe. Secondly, your fall did not cause yi'ush. You got back up and b'ezras Hashem are continuing. Thirdly, instead of hiding, you shared the fall with the oilam here, recognizing that honesty coupled with support from a chevra are two major ingredients in getting iyh completely out of this mess.
