All three options may be out, no insurance. At least the Quetiapine immediate release is doable. Unfortunately it's even worse than XR in the metabolic stuff or at least appetite. My doctor said to not trust my body as far as eating. I'm trying but I can eat a full meal and 5 minutes later feel like I'm starving to death. I think I can do better though.
I will print out all of your replies and take them to my next appt. I remember when I was at 150 on Seroquel I was really pushing for 300. As is so often the case, I like the drug but the side effects are really nasty.
He added stims recently and I know by the length of my posts and occasional flash temper that I'm getting a bit manic on them. This too is getting better. But if I dropped Quetiapine maybe Adderall could help with the depression. It wasn't a crushing depression without Seroquel but it was there.
I need to do some research since you guys have some great ideas.
I think I've read and I know someone who has done it that I can taper to one mg without much trouble on Clonazepam. But when you hit 1 mg the fun starts, or it can.
Thanks again and if y'all have more to add I'm a motivated student.
