    Intrusive thoughts are common but can become pathological if they are obsessive and cause anxiety. To determine if thoughts are normal or obsessive, one considers how often they interfere with daily life and if they can be resolved. While trying to stop intrusive thoughts directly is difficult, professional help can identify the type of thought and help one learn to overcome it by using a staggered approach from self-help to seeking an authorized professional.
