to learn how to stop the speeding thoughts as soon as they start. You must acknowledge it and deal with it in a rational mindset. You may want to look into this.

I found it somewhat useful but it is also difficult to do when your mind and body are already going off the charts. It is considered to be a "life long battle" I have read in numerous publications over the years and I believe it is so, for myself anyway.
