Bipolar Disorde
"I had a &quot;nervous breakdown&quot; in November of 2009 and ended up in a psych hospital where I was promptly given Seroquel among other medicines. The Seroquel was amazing. I felt like someone switched the on button in my brain and I finally woke up. When I got out of the hospital and sought out a new psychiatrist for treatment, he took me off of the Seroquel because I am diabetic. After a year of unsuccessful treatment with other medicines, I begged to be put back on the Seroquel because the depression was unbearable, and I wasn&#039;t responding to other medicines. So he agreed and once again that switch has been flipped on and I feel &quot;normal&quot;! I am only on 300mg. I have to take it early because it knocks me out. In the morning I am very dizzy and have slurred speech."
