To combat this (and for me it has been effective to a large extent), I have taken to saying out loud what I am doing, and why. This has the effect for me of making an auditory trigger. Not only have I had the thought, but in saying it out loud, I have also heard it.


Now my brain has two points of reference, so it is much harder for the thought to fall out of my ear and disappear into the ether...
Well I have tried talking to myself to provide a running commentary but I just get into horrible arguements and end up not speaking to my self for days.
