Bipolar Disorde
"Seroquel has been a God send for me.  It stabilized my moods and stopped my &quot;extra thoughts&quot; or &quot;popcorn brain&quot;.  I take 600mg at bedtime and my psychiatrist has allowed me to take an additional 100mg if my mood gets ramped up.  I do get side effects from it like blurred vision and restless legs.   About an hour after taking Seroquel the restless legs subside and I am sleepy enough to get a good night&#039;s sleep.  I am prescribed benztropine (Cogentin) for the restless legs and it helps some.  After I take my medicine I do not drive until the next day as there is risk of an accident and getting a DUI.  I did have a rapid weight gain of about 40 pounds but I would rather be over weight and functioning and not hospitalized."
