My boyfriend says he has racing thoughts in the middle of the night, that keep him from falling back asleep. I suspect he learned the term "racing thoughts" from me. He is definitely not bipolar, not a depressed person. I wonder if "regular" people who do not have bipolar have madcap, extremely fast racing thoughts? Does anyone know?

My racing thoughts cause me to DO everything that pops into my head --esp research answers online to my various curiosities and trivialities, when I should be getting to sleep at night. Like now.
