Bipolar Disorde
"I&#039;m one of those unlucky people that doesn&#039;t really respond to antidepressants, so I need an antipsychotic to stabilize my mood.  I was on Seroquel for a many years but switched after the negative effects of my memory and concentration, which ended up being not so subtle; weight gain and oversleeping came a little while after as well, so I found it was time to switch. This is my best try so far after Seroquel, but that&#039;s not saying much.  Having to take this with food   needing to go to sleep pretty much Right After or else getting lost in a paranoid/anxious frenzy/limbo-type state is really quite challenging. I also get tired pretty early which I believe is due to the half-life of the medication (18 hours or so)"
