âObstructive sleep apnea is a destructive disease that can ruin your health and increase your risk of death,â said American Academy of Sleep Medicine President Dr. Timothy Morgenthaler, a national spokesperson for the Healthy Sleep Project.
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.
And If you find that you are not able to get racing thoughts under control, consider consulting a mental health provider. Anxious thoughts can be part of a mental health disorder that professionals can treat effectively with psychotherapy, medication, or a combination of the two.
