My racing thoughts-
I find it very tough to read because my mind is playing around with so many other thoughts-for example, when I read these posts, I must go back and reread several times to get the full message. Just now, while reading, the thoughts I remember were thinking about how good my dog feels up against me, wondering if the ceiling face makes a noise if a listen closely, looking at the leaves outside and calculating the breeze to see if a walk would be comfortable, etc. Of course, it takes much longer to type these thoughts!
At night, even after 1 mg of klonopin, my mind jumps all over the place for at least an hour most nights. At times, my dreams wake me up so I can go through more thoughts. In the morning, it is almost impossible for me to get out of bed for at least 15 minutes while my thoughts take over while in a relaxed state.
Along the same lines, I have a son who is dx'ed with adhd, and he is very verbal. He starts spouting off off-the-wall facts all of the time, and usually he speaks so fast it is hard to understand him. The meds help, but in the summer he is very lax about taking them.
