No one on earth can control what go's through their mind, we can cut it short, shake it off, distract ourself
but thoughts are just thoughts, they have no power and they are not supernatural. Just move on to something that you can lock on to, "there's something", look for it, Peace

PS:You are not what you think, some people think a bad thing and are just sure they will loose control, not
going to happen, the mechanism that made you shrink in horror at your thought is going to prevent you
acting out on it.

Hi

How are you feeling today?

I have OCD and struggle with intrusive thoughts on a daily basis the best thing I find that helps is doing Mindfulness Meditation I have done a few post on this subject and you will be able to find them by doing a search. It take a while to learn but it is well worth the effort.
