What works for me is to redirect my thoughts. As soon as I get one of those images, change my thoughts. It was very hard to do at first but over time I've learned. Now I rarely have the thoughts. And I know how to get rid of them.<P>Worked for me<BR>Z<P>------------------<BR>He loves not who does not show love.<BR>----William Shakespeare

Sometimes I would roll my eyes and verbally say to myself "Yuuuuuuuck" (sarcastically). I know that doesn't translate very well but it worked sometimes. Other times, I had to stop and say a prayer that I would stop having those thoughts.
