Hi,
I agree with Shelli- it's one of OCD or depression's symptoms, this obsessive negative thinking. It usually helps to have a therp point out how you are probably blowing things out of proportion and putting a negative spin on it. Racing thoughts are the hallmark of mania- where so many ideas are running through your head that it is difficult to follow through to the end of a thought. Sometimes it gives way to pressured speech and for me it is never negative, at the time I think myself quite brilliant. Hope this helps- judy
