I get this with every panic attack I have! I find that because I am a student and have so much to remember, during a panic attck it hits me like a huge wave of mixed-up thoughts. It has gotten to the point where after all these thoughts stop racing my friend has had to reassure me that "no you are not going crazy". Something I find is that after this symptom during a panic attack, especialyl if it lasts for a longer period of time, is that I have severe memory loss for hours afterwords. This is kind of scary, and I wish there were some way to stop it, since I can't afford to let my memory slip. Any thoughts?

Hi Bec, and welcome! :)
I just replyed to your concern on another thread. I'm very familiar to what you're describing, and so are a lot of others on this site. Good news is it's not a unique symptom those horrible thoughts and forgettfulness. It's all part of deprsonalisation. Don't worry you're not going crazy, even if the thoughts convince you that you are. Someone said to me once that 'crazy people don't know they're crazy.' I try to remember this when I'm experiencing these racing thoughts. You're not alone in this, take care :)
Hi everyone. I'm new to this site but am glad to see that there are others out there going through the same thing I am. When I have a panic attack, my mind starts to race and things are going through my head so fast that by the time its all over, I don't even know what I was thinking about. When these thoughts are racing through my head, they seem so unreal and bizzarre like being in dream. I also feel like I don't know where I am. Everyone tells me, including my family doctor and psychologist, that its just panic but I have such an intense fear of losing my mind. Does anyone else ever feel like this?
