Bipolar Disorder Sign #8: Racing Thoughts
When we are talking to others, we will usually stick to just one topic, occasionally going off on a tangent when appropriate. It is necessary for us to do this because otherwise it would be difficult for others to understand us. It could also become difficult for us to keep track of our own thoughts.
During a manic episode, a patient is likely to find that their thoughts will race. Instead of sticking to one topic, they will jump from one to another barely settling on any one thing. They will also tend to talk very quickly and it can be difficult to keep up with just what they are saying.
