I created this framework (Shi-Mo) because traditional CBT didn't work well for my racing thoughts.
I realized that emotions act a lot like background daemons in an OS. So I combined Stanislavski's acting system (Method of Physical Action) with system architecture concepts (Root User, Throttling, Circuit Breaking).
It's essentially a "wetware patch" to help regain executive control during high-stress situations.
It's open source (MIT). I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether this engineering approach to psychology makes sense to you.
