Learned helplessness and confidence boosting

[TaoTe]

Currently experiencing a -125BB downswing. I'm doing what I normally do. Playing less, reading more, dropping to a lower limit, but there's a problem. Even dropping to lower limits, when I sit in a game I'm expecting to lose, which destroys my confindence, which makes me play worse, which increases the low morale and the wheel keeps spinning. I've been trying to figure out ways to help boost confidence and remove this learned helplessness that I've been feeling whenever I play. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions or techniques that could help instill a winner's frame of mind, or at least not a, "I'm going to lose my shirt because I'm no good," mindset.
