In reply to racing/ out of control thoughts, posted by Ines on March 11, 2007, at 15:36:42
I can relate to some of what you are experiencing. Right now my thoughts aren't racing as much as I my head feels 'crazy' & the blade thing often comes to mind. I also remember another phase when I wasn't so down and more agitated (& productive). And I remember thinking how odd it was that I had these constant intrusive "I want to die" and "I want to kill myself" thoughts. It was like the thoughts happened, and I noticed them after the fact. And then when I sort-of 'switched' & became less agitated. I quickly noticed that the intrusive death thoughts greatly reduced, but I felt like crying all of the time.
I don't consider myself a true bipolar, but having these weird changes seem to give me a different perspective on the brain than I would have otherwise.
