And what if I use another thought only in order to not think about the pink elephant? Let's say I think about the damn elephant all day. Literally all day. At this point I would be using a thought JUST and ONLY to not think about the first thing (the pink elephant)... I'm sorry, I made a mess in my head. I just don't know what to do, because I would love to think about something else than the elephant, but I feel I can't. And btw thanks for your answers :)
