A Curse and a Blessing
For me, racing thoughts are a double edged sword. On one hand, it allows for fast reaction time, but it also never really stops. My thoughts are like a train without breaks. Until I hit the bed and pass out, it doesn’t stop. Like many things, I’ve grown somewhat accustom to it.
Another downside of having racing thoughts is that when I think about something negative, my brain often latches on and won’t let go of the thought. Which causes me to overthink things quite often. It’s usually harmful and causes me added stress.
