Don't try to control your thoughts. I used to have the sickest worst possible thoughts as a teen and it grew worse because I realized, "omg how can I think of something like this at such a moment? What's wrong with me?" And then I learned about Ironic Processing, and then any thoughts that came, I let them, and ignored/shrugged them off.
Your thoughts don't define you, it's what you do in spite of them that does. You seem like a good person, so you have nothign to worry about. If you get those thoughts, humor them, think of your mind like a little kid trying to play tricks on you.
I have violent and upsetting thoughts.
