Suggest Medication To Slow Down Racing Thoughts
My husband has some white matter. His mind is very good. His memory is amazing, but his brain races. He gets around good. Is there a medicine that can slow his brain waves down. He want everything done and done now. He says his mind at times appears like fire work when it explodes in the air.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As you have told me, your husband is suffering from racing thoughts, this might be a part of his personality which is right from his childhood causing racing thoughts and also behaving based on those thoughts. One modality of getting better from this is to regularly exercise at least 2 to 3 days per week and have regular walks in the morning time so that the neurotransmitter levels in the brain get normal and the neurotransmitters responsible for pleasure also increases in his brain so that he feels better, then his racing thoughts will come down. If he still has a problem then short term mood stabilizers can be taken which will help him feel better regarding his racing thoughts.
I hope I have solved your query. Feel free to ask any further questions.
Thank you
