Ruminating thoughts

Asked for Male, 20 Years

I have this weird compulsion to do things which are out of my reach and I'm conscious about that thought when I have it but still I'm not able to control these thoughts. After a lot of disturbing days, these thoughts fade away. Please tell me a way to overcome these thoughts instantly.
