I took Seroquel for about 2 years but I took it at night because it made me sleep...during the day however I still had problems. I have been on some antipsychotics..can't name them right off, but it is almost like NOTHING works for me. (at least this is how I feel) I want some thorazine to put me out of my misery but I have to be careful what I ask for because I used to take Valium and Klonopin and xanax (not all at the same time) and I abused them..to the point of having to go to rehab...so when I say I want to be knocked out..or I want to be "numb" my psychiatrist immediately thinks I want to take benzos again.
But, I want my mind to be calm..it has never been calm and I feel so frazzled. I know when I first started on Lithium, it was like a breath of fresh air...I could finally relax and sleep..and now it is like it isn't working like it should...I am on 900 mg of Lithium and she told me she can take it up one more time..but I have to get my lithium Level checked before she will do anything and yet I need something done sooner than later..(Im not a very patient person when it comes to my mental health)
