There's nothing to "cure". In my (admitedly fairly limited) experience with D/s play, there's a boundary that gets pushed, explored, maybe even expanded. But once something crosses that boundary, that's when the safeword gets used and action stops. Fun is fun, but it's got to stay in the realm of fun, or it's not hot anymore. Once there's "real" fear or humiliation overwhelming the excitement and heat, things change. I say "real" in quotation marks, because it's not like the lower levels of fear and humiliation aren't real, they're just... at a level that evokes "play", not "threat".
You do HAVE a safeword, don't you? If not, agree on one before you play again. Lots of people use a pair of words--one that means "easy there" and the other that means "stop right now". lurkette and I used "Wednesday" and "Thursday". I'm getting to the point that I'm hearing "Wednesday" less and less frequently. We've never actually used "Thursday".
There's NO SHAME in using your safeword. Your safeword is not the same as "saying no". Nobody should feel bad because anybody used the safeword--it's not like that. The safeword might even be used in the event of "too much of a good thing". It's not "you did bad, stop that". It's not "I'm too weak to take it". You should feel safe with it. That's why it's called a safeword.
This is an inherant part of the D/s game. Even the baddest-ass submissives have and use safewords. There's nothing to "cure" about you that you have boundaries. That's very, very healthy.
