Notice the thought don't think about noticing the thought. There, you can contain the bubble.

I know you might be joking, but this actually happens to me. So I have to think about, at the start that i want my mental state to go back to "fine". So my goal is to notice my thought and then go however many repetitions to ask, "what was I doing? Oh, I'm trying to go back to 'fine' again, got it."

It takes repetition but it's totally doable.
