The anxiety created aroung the thought can cause the thought to be more noticeable and recurring. Rumination can actually act as a compulsion which prolongs the cycle of obsessive thoughts. I'm not sure if this will help what your specifically dealing with right now, but I found this website that looks at what rumination is and how to manage it: https://www.cadabams.org/ocd-ruminations-how-to-get-help/
