tonyz - any luck with the sleep?

For me, I've decided to go back to 100mg Seroquel. I'm starting to look for work and I was starting to get some unnecessary anxiety that was making it hard to think straight. I am some kind of bipolar, although only drugs or antidepressants will make me go hypomanic, so Seroquel is the cap on the high end.

I used to take 400mg lithium, but that was interacting with the antidepressants and causing insomnia, flat mood, anxiety. I sort of went with a gut feeling and dropped the lithium for a few days, felt better, then went on Seroquel.

I'd like to reiterate that sleep has been much improved since adding magnesium citrate in small doses throughout the day. A little calcium (not too much) may also help. B6 and zinc may also help with sleep quality. I've tested them on someone who was not sleeping well but without a diagnosis of depression or whatever, and she is sleeping much better.
