Well "Welcome" mgran. I am happy that things are improving for your. Sounds like it has been a rough times for you. It's nice to have a support group like you do. Sounds like you have been blessed.

As for feeling tired all the time, maybe it is "just not feeling so manic". I know when I go through my manic phases that when I went back to "norm" I felt like I had no energy or strength for much. If like me, it will balance out soon.

Maybe when you get to the point of reducing the seroquel that "sleepy" feeling will let up. I found that taking seroquel about an hour before bedtime reduces the tired feeling the next day. Maybe once the Lamactil is working real good for you, you will be able to reduce the seroquel. I know Lamactil works well for reducing the psychoses episodes. Hope all keeps going in the right direction for you. Glad that your son and you are progressing in the right direction.
