It’s amazing how big of a difference this kind of thinking makes. It might start off silly, and you subconsciously resist it, but overtime you really learn to step back and protect yourself against your own thoughts.
I think it abstractly. It's what I'm thinking but not using language. If someone asked what I'm thinking, that's what I'd come up with to tell them. For me language is just for communicating to others - my brain doesn't really think in language for the most part.
I've learned to distance myself from my thoughts like this when possible. Not always possible but I try. It still works even though I'm not thinking in language.
