Well, perhaps ... but I can't figure out how to use it to get what I
want.  Suppose that I have several 'ps' instances running, and I do ...

  ps -C ps u

Let's use the term "my process" to refer to the process that gets
invoked by this command line.  Is there a way to use the --deselect
option to show all of the 'ps' instances except my process?

In other words, how would I distinguish my process from all the other
'ps' processes?
