Recite Ta`awwudh (A`oodhu Billaahi Minash Shaytaanir Rajeem) ten times every morning and every evening.
Try to stay with Wudhoo at all times. I mentioned this in another post, but I'm mentioning it here again: Wudhoo is the shield of the Mu'min against Shaytaan. A person who stays with Wudhoo at all times enjoys special protection from Allaah Ta`aalaa. Shaytaan has no power against such a person. So try to be with Wudhoo at all times and when going to bed. Another very important thing is that you should try never to be for a long time in a state of Janaabah (major impurity).

I thought since this is about waswass I'd like to sneak in. So here goes:
I've some other variants in waswass, particularily about shirk, I know major shirk is worshipping anyone or anything besides Allah, but whenever I try to enforce that and affirm that what the Qur'an says, the waswass don't go away.
So should I just ignore this too, because how I understand it from your post, is that I am only strengthening the waswass by overthinking on shirk and Tawheed.
I get the urge to constantly affirm my rejection on shirk, my belief in Tawheed and Qur'an.
may Allah cure me and all of us, and reward us with His love. Ameen.
And Allah :swt: knows best.
