have not had any racing for a while now ... that's good ... but I find when my mind wanders I seem to be over whelmed with memories ... things from years even decades ago ... one after another just running together piling on top of each other ... there seems to be no rhyme or reason to this and no structure or trigger to cause these ... they are just there ... never happened before ... today while driving was like people shouting in my ears with memories ... no med changes no extra or new stress ... just very strange to come out of nowhere ... though some memories are good the total sensation is very disturbing ...

When I had that it was like steam was shooting out of my ears. My treatment team all told me the only way to stop it was medication.

I've had that going for months. For a while it was voices screaming at me and then it seemed to be my own thoughts but still yelling. For me it was a reminder of everything I ever did wrong. Memories of things I messed up working, with people I haven't seen in 25 years, with jobs I had in high school, everything that I can remember doing wrong and some I couldn't. Then it got critical and screamed every time I did something wrong, even if it was just a misstep while coloring to keep my hands busy.
This is one reason I dread the response to backing down on my 2nd AP since it took the screaming part away and I've just had a commentary of wrongness that was easier to ignore lately. I'm sorry you are going through this. It's really hard to handle, at least for me it was/is.

I can definitely understand this but it has improved a lot with recent increases in dosage of a few of my meds.
The worst time was a couple of months ago. Every regret in my life flooded my mind all at the same time, over 50 years of regrets slammed into me in the same instant. It was horrible, so bad I thought I would die from my mind racing so fast. I finally ended up taking 4 mg Ativan which quickly calmed me down and within an hour I was asleep, blessed sleep. |
