Here in my opinion are the best meds for ruminating thoughts/obsessive thinking:
Remeron
Klonopin
Paxil
ZyprexaThey are in order of lightest to heaviest in terms of side-effects, danger, or withdrawal symptoms. And yes, Paxil has pretty nasty withdrawal. Remeron works good for blocking "bad" thoughts and is a potent antidepressant, Klonopin kinda makes you less introverted so to speak and narrows your thoughts (keeps you from thinking a million thoughts at once), Paxil numbs well and blocks some negative thoughts, and Zyprexa REALLY blocks thoughts (but always has that risk of extra-pyramidal symptoms).
