Seroquel actually is being used as a mood stabilizing drug. You probably would need a higher dose for mood stabilizing than for say, sleep issues.
Call your meds person and tell them the diagnosis, and what is happening to you now.
I am a bipolar veteran of a whole 3 months

. My only experience with bipolar before my diagnosis was during my psych clinical rotation in nursing school. The man had a long history of treatment resistant psychotic mania with homicidal ideation. He thought I was Satan and needed to have my neck snapped with a chair. The chair was bolted to the ground though... So you can see where I freaked out when I got my diagnosis.
I never thought I could be bipolar either...I have two college degrees, one from an Ivy League school, another from a top nursing school. I have a reputation for being the rock people can lean on. I am generally responsible, I handle the family finances, and I have always gotten great performance evaluations at my work.
