The only way a generic might be different is that, in many cases, a slow-release version of a drug is available in the branded form, whereas it's not in the generic. That's because, while the drug's patent has expired, the slow-release technology's hasn't. Then again, it depends entirely on what "it" is.
As far as dealing with the grinding: some people find that taking a magnesium supplement every day helps. I never tried that. Then again, I've been grinding my teeth pretty much continuously since I was a wee tot, so the little bit of extra wasn't all that noticeable.
On the scatterbrained-ness: I had a lot of that, and mostly just learned to deal with it. IIRC, keeping my diet correctly balanced became more important, probably because it was due at least in part to the fact that I was eating less.
Lila: I have some comments on the ring, but I'll avoid posting them since they start getting into the realm of TMI. In short, though: I've heard nothing but great reviews, definitely worth a try.
