If your mind starts racing, your thoughts suddenly become very fast and difficult to control.
Hear it in real life
Why are you still awake?
My mind starts racing when I think about tomorrow's meeting.
My mind starts racing whenever I have to speak in front of a large audience.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: My mind starts running when I am worried.
Say: My mind starts racing when I am worried.
The established expression uses “racing,” not “running.”
