Thinking too much has always been one of the biggest things that I have to deal with. It is very hard to shut off the thoughts and worries. Sometimes there are distractions when having to deal with situations, but the negative thoughts are always there. Racing thoughts... a totally different thing that i've found are a big part of my bipolar do get better with meds most of the time. It's so easy to get caught up in one's head and dwell on things...
