Not exactly sure but although Seroquel kept me extremely sedated, my moods and anxiety were very stable on it.
Now that I’m on my own my anxiety levels have increased.
Klonopin helps but it’s already starting to lose its effectiveness because Ive been taking it more often.
I’m going to contact my pdoc later today and let him know my situation.
He doesn’t know my father passed
Seroquel will be an add on as usual to my primary meds of risperidone and Depakote
Hope you get some relief
Do what you need to help @Wave
It’s a tough thing losing someone so close
Might help for now and maybe revisit it another time if you want to reduce it down again
Maybe you just need a temporary increase to get you through this hard time as you grieve. Hugs.
Can you try to look for a community of some sorts to join? The grieving community group can really help.
Idk im not a doctor AND even they make mistakes because everyone is different
Ill give you a example risperidol for me is a scam waste of time BUT it helped you i had zero insight on it and invega and was in full psychosis
Seroquel might help or it might not thats what im saying
No I’ve decided to scrap the Seroquel
It sedates me too much
Instead my doctor is raising my Risperdal dose a bit even if it’s temporary
Sorry about your father. Risperdal is a pretty good med.
Thank you @roxanna
