Sounds like therapy may be a good approach. Have you given this much thought?
You can learn to "retrain" your thought patterns without medication.
Just a "thought". ;)

I've been bothered for quite some time by some upsetting thoughts. I guess it might be called obsessional thinking, but it feels so bad at times, I think it's a little like a "mild" PTSD, with flashbacks, etc. If I add more meds, I'll just turn into a mindless blob that never gets out of bed, so I'm hoping for some behavioral techniques.
