My major prob' is anxiety. I think depression followed anxiety. I don't have any psychoses. I don't have regular (like you say, three week intervals) ups and downs. I have no manic states.
Usually downs are related to something that has happened in my life.
The only thing that I have is 'sometimes' racing thoughts, and problems with study/learn/recall.
P in hospital prescribed Seroquel 300mg h.s. & 25mg 3x a day, and Trileptal 300mg 2x a day.
My P (outside of hospital) asked how I was and I said well I feel like a 'zombie'. He cut my sleep Seroquel from 300mg to 100mg, mix w/ 100mg trazodone (Desyrel).
The P in hospital had discontinued trazodone.
This morning I awakened, recalling persecution nightmare, and felt a fullness feeling in my head.
Too bad I couldn't stay off trazodone, as have had these nightmares for a few years while on it.
It does seem like the Seroquel is calming my mood w/ the 25mg 3x a day.
My hospital treatment wasn't good. Thank God I got out of there. Only thing that was good was learning that borderlines take mood stabilizers.
I wonder why my P outside the hospital never prescribed any mood stabilizers??
I'll stop wondering and find a new doc when can gather myself together again. Until then, will try my best to take care of myself, as I don't feel there is any professional person out there taking care of me. cf
