Maybe. There is a video on YouTube made by a young man with autism. He is describing what it's like to have sensory overload. It uses a scene from an old Transformers cartoon, where first he shows it as it is normally. Then, he shows how it is for him if he's being over stimulated. It has multiple overlays of sounds.

I consider it the best example of racing thoughts for me. I wish I could remember the name of the video. And I also get over stimulated, which makes me very anxious and irritable.

Another question I have along these lines if if epilepsi and bipolar may be linked somehow. That strange, almost out of body experience I have when having a full blown episode, and then the physical sensations that accompany it for days afterword... along with the fact that anticonvulsants are also mood stabalizers? It's very, very interesting.

All of these types of questions is why I wanted to go into psychiatry but not in practice, but to be a researcher. Find answers.
