The problem seems to be gradually worsening as the years go by. Thoughts? Remedies? Asylums?

Thanks.
What? I think this would make anybody very anxious, or in your terms, uncomfortable. If you have self-control to resist the situation, then you're doing okay. If you can't resist it and end up snapping, then you have a problem and should see a professional.
