I get that. It would be nice if anyone had some techniques to deal with it.
Have you tried meditation, trying to stay in the moment.
If you imagine you're the sky and your thoughts are the clouds, try watching the thoughts come and go just like the clouds.
Similar obsessive ideas enter my thoughts. I do not know how to describe what I do, but I ruthlessly mentally stamp on them and reject them. I know that these types of thoughts would rule and ruin my life, if I let them. One thing I have noticed is that doing this straight away is the most effective way of dealing with them. My psychiatrist said that these intrusive thoughts were a facet of my autism, rather than a separate condition.
