I don't know exactly what john meant by sponge brain, but I think Remeron definitely settles my mind more than any med. This is especially true for nagging, loopy or very dark disturbing thoughts. Mood stabilizers I've tried work good for that too, as does Klonopin. Klonopin pulls you away from your inner self so to speak. I'd say if you want to completely knock out "thinking too much" take Lamictal, Klonopin, and Remeron. Let me tell you, I've tried this combo and it was the sh*t for out of control thoughts. In fact, for the first time I could actually meditate. Unfortunately I would still cycle on this cocktail and plummet towards depression after hypomania. But I realize now I experience this with any AD.
From the posts of yours I've read I remember you having pretty similar problems as me, including what I could only describe in the past as "thinking too much" for my own good. Do you find you can think much more clearly when drunk? Anyway, good luck.
