Hi, welcome
Many years ago yes, I had such intrusive thoughts at a time of high anxiety and untreated bipolar, mania. Mania I felt had a lot to do with it, an over active mind.
So my therapist at the time identified it and gave me a few ideas on how to stop these thoughts from effecting my daily life.
1. Decide if such a thought is realistic. Eg you're driving and you imagine your cars engine will seize. But there's no evidence it will. That's an unsubstantiated thought. Its unrealistic.
2. If you can stop that thought.
3. If you cant, force your mind or actions to be distracted. Mind- think about your hobby, family or a nice thought. Actions- it could be as brief as washing your car or a short walk.
4. Fill you life up more with activities. An idle mind thats an active mind will become a mind of imaginations. Your mind- will have its own rudder.
5. Evaluate your life. My life had several toxic people even family members. I eliminated these people from my life and eventually their drama faded away.
Your OCD could be partially responsible but we arent professional medical people to diagnose.

I hope that helps. Now decades later I'm more at peace and rarely allow intrusive thoughts to gain weight.
