Someone told me once that our actions are what matter, not our thoughts. So, I might think "OMG, i just want to take every pill in the house" and instead walk outside and breathe the air...or instead continue what I was doing...or whatever. Did I take the pills? No. And the thought drifts away.

Like Elliemae, I think these thoughts will always pop into my head. For me, the key is not getting caught in them, wondering why I thought it, if I will do it, etc. I have the thought, think "what the heck?" and let it go and keep going.

Not sure if that's helpful, but you're not alone!
Thanks for this!
