> Welcome!
Mood stabilizers have helped me with obsessive, ruminating thoughts in general, including suicide. First Topamax and now Depakote.
They helped me "think more linerally" and gave me more control over my thoughts so that I could stop them when they started.
Also, I realized that I was not alone with this problem, which made me feel better about myself. Why would someone obsess over negative things? It's part of the illness (I'm diagnosed BP II). I'm convinced of that.
Good luck.
