Changing Self-Defeating Behavior.

 .
There is only one time you can change self-defeating behavior. And that is before the fact. You can't change it while you are acting out your self-defeating behavior. You can't change it after, you will only repeat it. You have to be consciously aware, in advance, that you are about to perform an act of self-defeating behavior and make the conscious choice not to do it.
