I think climber's ideas may be correct...but it's hard to make oneself defend one's BB MORE when one is in a downswing.

I'm not sure I like the term "defending" one's blind. I think it ties people to the hand too much. I love opponents whose idea of defending blinds (or stealing them) is to spew at least 5 BBs with no pair and no draw. Yeah, that's a great way to try to save or win that 0.5 BB blind bet. Against these guys you can call pre-flop and then just toss your hand if you miss the flop. It feels weak but you won't win by playing back at them without the best hand, and when you do hit they pay off quite a bit.
