I have a lot of intrusive thoughts and something I realized I do to cope is make lists in my head. I’ll think of a really mundane and random topic or category and just start listing things. For example, I will think about features I want in my future home, say all the words I can think of that start with a particular letter or name different types of animals. I feel like it helps distract me from my original intrusive thoughts because I’m actually needing to use my brain to think of other things. Does anyone else do this?
