> I thought about killing myself more back then. The thought still crosses my mind daily. Seems like I've tried everything under the sun, and I feel just about at the end of my tether.
Me too. That's exactly how I feel.

I think it's a good idea (even though the long weekend is over now so you've probably already done it).What happened with Effexor? I think that maybe you should try increasing your dose before giving up on it. Aren't you only taking 150?
As for me, I went down to 25mgs of Seroquel. I think that I still feel about the same as before, but less tired which is good. I've been feeling kind of badly for a couple weeks, but it doesn't seem like that's gotten worse since I reduced the Seroquel. I haven't slipped back to an agitated suicidal depressive wreck yet, so I guess that's good. I think that a lot of my gloom and depression lately is due to my life/problems. Also I've gotten pretty anxious and stressed lately, which might have something to do with reducing Seroquel, but also is because of certain things going on in my life.I was on vacation until yesterday, when I flew back to where I live. It was hard to leave my family and return to my life, and then when I got home my apartment was infested with fleas. Still is. So that sucks.
