Default anti-tilt? or something... help?

This isn't a hand analysis or advice on a specific hand. I need some advice in general -

It's something I like to call anti-tilt. It's when you start a session and you win 1-3BI right off the bat. You're feeling really good, cards are hitting, and then your play goes to crap.

When it happens, it's not like I'm chasing every gutshot I see, I still play odds correctly, I just start doing stupid things. Really stupid things. Like calling down 25BB in a 40BB pot with TT on a AJ946 board thinking villian is definitely bluffing. It's the kind of stuff that, if anybody posted about it, it would be a unanimous FOLD but in my heightened state I call then look like an amateur.

My question to you in the small stakes forum is this : how do I avoid it? Recently I have consciously thought about it while I play but it still seems to happen. It is something I feel is killing my winrate and I'm not sure how to stop. I asked a fellow 2p2 grinder and he suffers from the same thing.


Thanks
