Can it work if, instead of visualizing a written parade, you just voice a description of each thought inside your head?
I typically experience thoughts in the form of sounds, so taking the effort to translate these into writing disrupts my thoughts and ruin the point of the exercise.
Voicing thoughts aloud in my head is exactly what I used to do whenever I got caught up in an obsessive spiral of worrying, so I am skeptical but why not try it anyway?
But you don't need to literally visualise writing. I edited the article to specify that.
