My husband doesn't "get" how my brain works and I'm really wondering if anyone else has to deal with the things I do. He can't imagine thinking the way I do.
Basically my brain goes much faster than I could ever type or talk. I can actually think on several different tracks at once, basically simultaneous trains of thought that are actually perfectly intelligible to me. The thoughts aren't mixed together they are clearly separate tracks. It can actually gets rather annoying dealing with my brain working like this. I've found that a drink or two will dull it down and slow it down enough to drop back the speed and narrow it down to one thought concept at a time. I've also noticed that anxiety attacks drop it to one concept, but don't slow it down at all.
Anyone else notice anything like this?
Oh and we were talking about the fact that high IQ has a higher instance of age related mental/memory issues. DH said perhaps the candle that burns the brightest burns the shortest. I thought that was interesting...
