Hi Missliz and others,
I am BPII and have been on Seroquel 100 mg for about a year. I was also on Depakote 750 mg, Lithium 500 mg, 150 Wellbutrin, and thyroid med.
I was SERIOUSLY complaining to doc about feeling so FLAT with no energy, so he has taken me off the Depakote and added 40 MG Ritalin.
I can still sleep right through the first 20 MG of Ritalin in the morning. (I don't work, on disability).
Do you think I should be off the Seroquel as well?
I was put on it to help me sleep and stop the business in my head at night. I can't understand why I can sleep so easy in day and not at night without major help. My sleep cycle is almost totally reversed.
Can you tell what you found bad about seroquel?
ANd if I do go off it what I can expect?
I know I could go to the site someone mentioned but to tell you the truth if I read ALL bad news about a drug it can scare me too much....
sorry for long post!!
