Remeron was the foggiest med i have been on. I took it to sleep at night. Gabitril and Neurontin both helped with obsessions and mood swings. It seems that these drugs are used for a lot of different reasons. They make you feel detached in general. i think Neurontin fogged up my brain too much, at times i couldn't put a sentence together that made any sense. Gabitril has worked best for me, although it has caused some neurological side effects--twitches and stuff. It doesn't keep me from obsessing if i decide i really want to, which i like. but i don't get lost in thoughts for hours at a time like i used to. it helped as an add-on for panic and as a mood stabilizer. i had to go up to 8 mg to get the best effects. Some people go all the way to 50-something. If you don't mind feeling high it works well.
