Yeah no kidding
By the sounds of it we have a lot in common brain-wise. In the past my thoughts would seriously race unceasingly and I couldn't really stop myself. When I did research into it the best description I could find was this vague term "obsession" which is like obsessive compulsive disorder without the compulsion and just the obsession.
It was like my head was a gear that was constantly churning non stop about everything, just taking in the world and crunching over and over and over trying to figure everything out.
These days I control it through meditation and "awareness" in general.
You might try to practice to relax and focus your attention on one specific thing and notice the details, but keep looking and keep noticing more and more detail in one specific thing. I find this helps me a lot, it seems to get my brain under control.
