I like the thicker ones for heavier songs, I find I get a bold sound with it, which i have problems getting with thinner picks. But for most songs I use my fingers.

I use:
Clayton 1.0 and .8 mm
Dunlop Tortex .88 and .6 mm
COOL with a textured grip area in 1.0 and .6 mm.
It all depends on the song as to which one I use. |

| I was the same way for years. Since then I have improved my skill and now for me its all about what the song dictates IME. Certain songs require different picking techniques and some its about the tone that is created by using a certain type (thick, thin, nylon) of pick. |

Thanks to a recent article on Sonny Landreth in G***** Player, I discovered Herco Thumb/Flatpicks. 
Now they are all I play. I need extra-heavies though, or else they end up like this:
