I'm not a native English speaker. Could you kindly (or please) explain what "out of my mind" means?
To say someone is "out of their mind," can mean they are crazy, hysterical, or otherwise just not able to "think straight," which means they can't think logically.
It is sometimes said that a person is "out of their mind with grief," which means that they are so sad or grief-stricken (filled with grief), that they can't think. A person can also be "out of their mind with anger, with sadness, with dismay..."; basically anything that causes one not to think clearly or logically can be said to make them "out of their mind."
Usually if it is said to someone directly, such as I say to you, "you are out of your mind," then it is often somewhat of an insult, meaning that you don't think clearly, or you aren't acting or behaving normally. Another way of saying it, in this context (meaning), is to say you are crazy, or you are "nuts," or you are "nutty."

It means the person is out of his right mind or crazy. Perhaps, temporary insanity.
