I take Topamax for the thoughts, etc...and its gone now....occcassionally I get that channel flipping static at night when I am trying to sleep, but thats about it....

i don't know what to call that.. or if there's a label for it... but it sounds like a hyperactivity in your brain... where you're overanalyzing & making judgements of insignificant details that normally you would just tune out... sometimes the meds we take help the most by just giving us the chance to "crawl out of our own head space" and live life ... does that make sense on any level??
when i get thoughts like that, encroaching on me.. and i can't shake it.. that i attribute to obsessive compulsive disorder... for which i'm not being treated... it's not severe... but ugh is it irritating when it kicks in.. like a light switch that's flipped ON and then duck taped in place... no matter how ridiculous the thought pattern... and even though my logical self can identify that i'm literally obsessing & it's causing me to overthink whatever it is that's stuck in my brain... and that is causing me to come to ludacris conclusions about insignificant things... i still can't shake it... eventually it passes (although never quickly enough)... and i'm always SOOOOOO grateful when those 'episodes' are over... is that anything like what you're describing??
