bipolar disorde
"I was diagnosed Bipolar 1 with psychotic features 3 years ago, but always dealt with grandiose thinking, mild delusions, a good deal of depression. After self medicating for two years I had a mental melt down and after spending 2 months cooped up in my apartment, anorexic, dying; I decided it was time to see a psychiatrist. The medications I was prescribed ranged from mood stabilizers to antipsychotics, benzo's, sleeping pills, many I was allergic to like Depakote and Trileptal. Anyway at first I tried the regular Seroquel but gained 40lbs in one month and slept 14 hours a day. Switched to Seroquel XR, not as tired, lost 20bs, appetite/ mental noise decreased, panic relief, strong sleep aide, life manageable, they are expensive. HIGHLY recommend."
