Well, it looks like I'll be trying Seroquel starting at 50mg. Even at 400mg a day, lithium makes it hard for me to focus and may even be exacerbating my depression and anxiety. If it weren't for a gut feeling I never would have tried not taking the lithium. Not taking it cleared up my head and made it possible to relax more and get some sleep sans zopiclone.
The doc I saw didn't even broach the topic of Depakote. When I asked why, he said it didn't help with the depression side of things.
So now:
venlafaxine 75mg
mirtazapine 30mg
quetiapine 50mg
lorazepam .5mg PRN
