Why is it that there are some thoughts we cannot control?

Question: why can't we just think what we want to.. Not what were afraid not to think or what we don't want to think.. Is worrying too much about ur thoughts normal?

Answers:
Its called intrusive thoughts and this is the best definition I have ever found!

Thoughts from a traumatizing experience may not go away until we confront our thoughts, fears, experiences, etc.

Thoughts from guilt may not go away until we do what we know is right.

Thoughts from worry, or knowing that something dangerous may occur may not go away until we speak up.
