That was me yesterday. I was so tired of thinking. It felt exhausting. Is that’s what racing thoughts are?
I rarely had racing thoughts.
Usually my mind is blank, empty.

Do you believe it’s mania?
I am starting to think it was I had a bout yesterday. As when I woke up I almost regret yesterday and feels stupid. Almost like feeling after being drunk.

You had fast thinking?
When i had a psychotic episode a few weeks ago, I had many ideas, I was talking rapidly etc.
Being mentally exhausted isn’t new for me. I blame myself though

I’m not sure it was fast but constantly thinking and not being able to switch off. It’s happebed many times before.
I had it a lot in high-school before exams and so, I felt really guilty about not studying but thinking and only wasting my time. It was before diagnosed sz and I didn’t know what I was suffering was. But thinking back, I guess it was a part of symptoms.

Bad thoughts? Like intrusive ones? Or neutral?

No. Like thoughts that’s won’t materialise soon. Thoughts that are supposed to be happy.

Maybe it’s anxiety for all the good things that happen in your life lately. Maybe anxiety, and also excitement, about engagement etc.

I get “episods” of that aswell. It’s like it wont stop and the thoughts get very intense. The thoughts usually tells me what to do or how to act and say etc.

My mind is always going, too. It is never still and quiet. Racing thoughts come and go extremely fast, usually when you are manic. I get that but even when i’m not manic my mind is constantly filled with thoughts. They just don’t come as fast.
