Are your racing thoughts something new?

Mindfulness techniques are useful, although I find that they can sometimes be difficult to apply when in the throws of a symptom flare up.
I try to use mindfulness to manage my anxiety symptoms, but I find that if I’m in a full blown panic attack, I can’t successfully apply mindfulness techniques.

Yeah, I get similar issues when in a full blown anxiety attack, except my thoughts are all of the catastrophic thinking variety. I sometimes just let it run its course, but it can be very draining energy-wise and it can literally take days in the worst case.
