I just wanted to clarify something. I choose to go back on Seroquel out of desperation. I'm bipolar. I have ups and downs. And my psychiatrist has a year's worth of "notes" that say I've been depressed for a year, which I haven't.
When I tell her I've been up and down for months, she says "well according to my notes you've only been depressed", Which I know is not true because I have never been depressed for more than a few days. She's not listening to me.
So she has no proof that I have been up and down, so there is no reason to increase my meds.
Then she says to me " I don't think medication will help your problem". What problem is she talking about?
So out of desperation I asked to be put back on Seroquel. Yay me!
I don't know what I am going to say to her next month, but it's not going to be pretty.
