How do you do it (handle the swings).

I don't play on line, just in local tournaments a couple of times a week (2-3 tourneys a night). I've been on a losing streak for about 2 months--just a few cashes in that time. My starting hands have started to come around, but the flop still hates me. I finally just took a week off so that I could have a week where I didn't replay beats in my head. It's been really refreshing.

For those of you who play every day, how do you handle what seems like a an unlucky streak? How do you keep from letting it affect how you feel about yourself? Are you able to not think about poker when you're not playing?
