Does any one else suffer with extremely fast uncontrollable thoughts rushing into your head, and mostly all negative, dark or weird, scary or worrying about future, or health, been alone. Etc. Don't think there's a thought I havnt thought lol but when it happens it's like something else is talking over your mind and it's really terrifying.

It's comes with like I can only discribe it as sensory overload. Everything starts to look weird or different, or light and sound seems exaggerated, and like objects are jumping out at you that normally you wouldn't even notice. Also I notice it's like I'm super aware of my own body to, any sensation in my body, I'm so aware of, drives me mad, and makes me more anxious and scared.

Wondering if anyone out there gets it also..?

Is this another delight of perimenopause??

    Hi

    This came at exactly the right time! I woke up at about 4 this morning and started worrying about things happening to my family and being alone. Think it's worse because I'm getting divorced
