> No I don't have any daytime sedation with Seroquel, it's the metabolic side effects along with anticholinergic properties and alpha 1 adrenergic antagonism that I don't like. These and Abilify being possibly more effective are the main reasons for a switch. I agree that Seroquel is better for anxiety, that is important. I've been thinking about my insomnia and I now believe that Lamictal is the reason, not Seroquel.

Thanks for your reply. I'm at 100mg lamictal, also, but I've acclimated to it well. I just began abilify 2.5mg, but am leery that my anxiety will worsen w/o seroquel.

Abilify can cause metabolic and blood sugar issues as well.

Does Remeron help you? Any trouble with weight gain, increased hunger?
