The phenomenon called racing thoughts is distinct from hearing voices, which is found in psychosis and is a symptom of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, severe mania or other psychotic disorders. Racing thoughts can be a symptom of mania or hypomania in bipolar disorder.
Adrenaline on its own can be triggered in many ways. For instance it can be a result of shock, or of a confrontation, and this then causes an increased heart beat, shaking, and racing thoughts. The solution is to try and control your breathing and to remove yourself from the stressful situation.
