ξαναβρίσκει τον αυτοέλεγχό της / επιβάλλεται στον εαυτό της

Explanation:
Νομίζω ότι αυτή η φράση εκφράζει ακριβέστερα το νόημα του αγγλικού ρήματος " to steel yourself ". Το αγγλικό κείμενο μας δίνει μία σαφή ένδειξη, λέγοντας ότι έβαλε την φιλία της υπεράνω της υπερηφάνειάς της (υπό την έννοια του εγωισμού της)
