The answer

What you heard about the invalidation of fasting and the nullification of prayer by swallowing saliva is not absolute.

Accumulating saliva during prayer is a futile act and is not permissible.

Rushing in prayer invalidates it if it compromises the element of tranquility; otherwise, the prayer is valid.

The cure for obsessive thoughts is to disregard them and pay no attention to them.
