my boyfriend committed suicide on the 7th of this month.
after working with counselor and several psychologists, I begin to understand what exactly he suffered from.
He used to mention to me, "he had racing thoughts."
I try to understand what exactly "racing thoughts" are.
I don't want to "trigger" anybody. But if you suffer from mental illness, and had "racing thoughts" could you please try to describe to me what it felt like. thank you
