It looks like seroquel is the go to drug for me. My doctor and psychologist think that I developed a psychosis(the problem that I just can't let go) and bipolar disorder because of my concussion. The seroquel helps with all those things and I can finally sleep again. What worries me really are the negative comments about it. I would take a low dose of 100 mg |

Now it is understandable as to why the psych prescribed the Seroquel. Previously, you only said you had depression issues.
Your concussion is not your primary issue. With this new information, please disregard any of my previous posts. |

It is the firstt time somebody told me that I have this. It was actually my psychologist who analysed my condition and came to this result. I probably have this since several months. The bipolar disorder occurs just very occasionally and the psychosis is not a full one(hard to describe the explaination of my psychologist)My doctor does not talk a lot and keeps giving me pills.

If your doctor is prescribing anti-psychotics but was not willing to give you this diagnosis earlier, I suggest you find someone who is a better communicator.
When did your doctor tell you 'bi-polar and psychotic' ? Bi-polar is by its definition an on and off cycling condition with the swings of varying amplitude. You need to find someone who will help you understand what is happening and teach you how to communicate your experiences. I don't think this forum is appropriate for you. |
