I do this, too. The only remedies I know are a walk or a colleague's fresh perspective.
For me rubber ducking a coworker solves a lot of these things instantly, but walking just gets me further entrenched in my own stupid ideas.
When you walk, the risk is you're still confirming and not asking those questions. The duck is awesome.
