Very good question. I had the same problem for many years.
Constant rumination can be a sign of depression.
You could try a good antidepressant such as Zoloft (Sertraline) for a few months. It can reduce rumination.
Or you could try to increase dopamine or epinephrine, with drugs such as:
- bupropion (Zyban)
- yohimbine
- mucuna pruriens
- N-acetyl-L-tyrosine (NALT)
- atomoxetine
All these improve willpower.
Or perhaps you could try to improve your focus, with:
- coluracetam
- methylphenidate (Ritalin)
- modafinil
- DHA
Or maybe you lack physical energy or have high inflammation. For these, I would try:
- MitoQ
- T3
- glutathione sr (in low dose)
- benfotiamine
- SIDA cordifolia (contains ephedrine)
Out off all the above, if I were to pick just a few which had maximum effect on me, I would choose for daily use:
- Sertraline
- coluracetam
- MitoQ
- T3
And for occasional use:
- benfotiamine
- SIDA cordifolia
When trying these kinds of supplements, you have to take great care to use the proper dosage and protocol.
For example: coluracetam works wonders for me, but if I take a dose which is too high, a monster headache rears its ugly head.
Or, if you take too much Sertraline, you can have horrible serotonin related symptoms.
