Yes. This is one of the primary symptoms of anxiety. Diagnostically one of the main ones. Do you have a history of anxiety perhaps? Any meds?

I always self medicated cause I was ashamed to admit I need help.
It could be anxiety, but there is a decent number of disorders that involve thought/mind racing. Bipolar II, GAD, panic disorder, ADHD, eat. Can you control the thoughts? Do you see a pattern of emotions or situations that trigger the racing thoughts? Lastly is there a certain topic or theme to the thoughts?

There's no need to be ashamed, OP. Seeking out help when you know it's time is a sign of strength IMO.

I agree with spork.
The sooner you seek help, the sooner you'll start to get relief of symptoms
. No one deserves to feel like that when there are so many treatment options available.
Are you able to confide in a Doctor you trust? There is NOTHING wrong with asking for help and every strength in doing so.
It is not fair to yourself to suffer anymore, not fair to you or your loved ones who feel your pain. (don't think they don't)....
If you see a Doctor and they are dismissive give them what for and make sure they know your not pulling BS here, you need some help. If their still dinks about it (their human too), find another who better understands what being a 'Doctor' is all about.
It's about quality of life.
Often, more often than we think and, in part, due to our environments and pollutants, our brains are wired with imbalances from birth, early on, or through trauma, they become imbalanced in ways that are not correctable through better life, happy thoughts or otherwise. Sometimes, a drug is needed to restore regular function. Nothing wrong with making things right.
Go get help. Don't sweep it under the rug and offer tea like so many do. ie. many english people.
good luck

I have anxiety (though i rarely get any these days) as well as bipolar disorder and i get racing, uncontrollable dark thoughts alot when i am not stabilized on medication. When my meds are working it goes away. The racing thoughts from bipolar seem to be alot worse then the ones from anxiety though ad more out of control.
I would highly suggest seeing a doctor ASAP
