I wonder if its a psychotic symptom? Do you have them? me, in the day I am calmer, but its in the evenings that I have them. I guess its the isolation from the years too for my case. I just try to occupy myself. Its just dumb what I do when I think like that, but sometimes I don’t control it.
I have thought blocking… No thoughts…
I still have racing thoughts sometimes. I think it’s pretty common in SzA cases. Sometimes it’ll feel like there’s more than one me in my brain, and each me is thinking different thoughts. I definitely don’t make the best decisions when things get like that. I’m not sure if it is a kind of mania or a psychotic symptom though I’ll ask my pdoc.
I had it when I was off my meds for a while… Kinda liked it at first but then it was too much…
I guess if it’s bothering you it can be treated with some kind of med, or maybe meditation…
Mine are not much appreciable, cause they are du style ‘‘youll never do it, think, think, think’’ and just dumb things like that. I don’t look for more meds anymore. Meditating can help more, yeap
Yeah, I used to think that stuff was too hippy dippy, but I’ve been doing “mindfulness” training and meditating and it’s really helped me a lot! I try to do it as much as I can when I’m feeling okay so that it will be easier to do it when I’m not doing well.
It sounds like you’re having a better time today. I’m sorry meds haven’t been great for you, but it’s never too late to get better <3
i thought racing thoughts were a manic symptom, mood stabilizers like your depakote help with that i think, let your doc know you’re having them maybe a med adjustment will help, ask doc. maybe something relaxing would help like a bath or binaural beat music thru headphones or mindfullnesss meditations. or a distraction like sculpting or painting or some hobby to take your mind away from it’s thoughts and put it into an outlet. As i recalll racing thoughts, imsomnia, irritabiity and many other things can be symptoms of mania or even mixed episodes, ask your doc.
Thank yoy for the concern dear finally but these thoughts wont disappear on their own isnt it? All i can do in those moments are watching tv, play some games (not all), eventually read a bit. I am strongly passive physically when i am like this. Plus, i have no mood or good emotions in these moments. Even my head hurts then wow…
