You are absolutely correct though it is usually supplemented with an additional antidepressant. However, having used Seroquel and then Seroquel XR myself and having spoken with my resources (as I was concerned with the vast number of medications that I had to take) we were able to take out a lot of supplemental meds but Seroquel XR or Seroquel is not effective as a mood stabilizer. Thank you for the correction.
