> Why won't your mind just be slow? Are you an introvert? Studies show that introverts are essentially compensating in their personality for over-activity in the area of the brain that regulates the effects of the fight or flight response--I believe the amygdala or hippocampus. Your brain is failing to properly shut down the reticular activation system, failing to produce the relaxation response.

It doesn't have to be a "losing battle" and medication is not necessarily a lifetime sentence with psychotherapy/psychodynamics. Support groups like NAMI can help as well as building social networks and becoming involved in something that interests you.
