I have been struggling with a fear of mental association. For example:

“what if I do this hobby and I am constantly thinking about an intrusive thought, or reminded of a situation”

It to me sounds a little like mental contamination, but also maybe just a fear of obsessive intrusive thoughts.

Does anyone have experience combating this? What did you do?

I’m too the point where I have that fear about anything I do, workout, read, meditate. It’s like there’s no escape from it and am having a hard time accepting the thought.
