Hey Muffled,
Another long-term head resident checking in. Alex's advice about mindfulness meditation was good and I should do it a lot more than I do because it really does help.
The real trick is not to try to not think, but to just let the thoughts float by like clouds and not attach to them. You can do mindfulness mediation with a candle or a photo or some other object as the focus for your attention too. Even simply counting the breath can be a good place to start.
