Lately every night, before i go to sleep and when i wake up , i get these crazy crazy thoughts/ random thoughts that dont make sense rushing through my head.. please dont ask what kind of thoughts, because i dont even remember, they are just crazy and are not real.. I just wanna rip my hair out , but it seems like these thoughts only come before i try to sleep or after i wake up.. it still happens throughout the day sometimes but nothing like when i sleep or wake up .. thank u for listening to my crazy self.. if anyone had a same experience or could tell if this is just anxiety, i would appreciate it.. thank u

gxpark,

Think of how crazy dreams can be when your sleeping. The subconscious or unconscious mind is capable of a lot of random strange thoughts. There are going to be times, especially just before falling asleep or when just waking up, where you are connected to some degree to this unconscious part of yourself and those crazy thoughts can get jumbled in with your conscious thoughts. This happens to me all the time. I can even be sitting up and if I start getting sleepy, then just before I actual doze off, can start getting some really weird stuff that makes absolutely no sense. This has always been the case with me, even before anxiety or panic came into my life, and I have talked with others who have said the same thing. Its nothing to worry about. In fact, observe the thoughts and be amused by their imaginative nature.

Hi,

Just a thought, but do you take meds at bedtime?? Sometimes a side effect of many meds can cause side effects like that. Mine did when I first started taking them. It seems to have gone away now.
I hope you find the cause of this. Take Care........Connie
