Do you find yourself thinking of these things often, perhaps in a circular fashion? Are they intractable to your best abilities to outreason them? You say that you recognize that the thoughts are not real.

Might it be helpful to view the thoughts as intrusive obsessions? There is a big difference between thinking "I think I'm defective or Not Good Enough." And thinking "I get these intrusive thoughts that I'm defective or Not Good Enough."
