My last one was several years ago. After I converted. While it was happening, I remembered something my priest's wife had said casually: that if you need to cross yourself, and you can't use your hands (because they're full of stuff, or it's not appropriate, or whatever), you can always *look* the four directions with your eyes and *think* the "In the Name of the Father, and... " part clearly in your mind. It had seemed a bit silly at the time. And there, inside the paralysis when I couldn't move my hands, I tried it out. And the thing released me. Just like that! Hasn't bothered me since.
