I'm also on seroquel. Lamactil lifted my depression when they first put me on it. I started to get a bit manic. After about six weeks of both seroquel and lamactil my moods levelled out. I don't often feel anything unbearably intensley anymore, either joy or despair. I can live with that. But I feel like I'm on a constant border where I might lose my temper ... when it does happen I'm not actually feeling angry. There's a part of me watching the blow up which is perfectly calm. Once the blow up (which is usually only a minute) is over, I take myself away for half an hour or so to calm down.

Usually it's shouting and screaming about something. Sometimes I bang my head on the wall, thump myself or something. It doesn't happen often though... maybe once every couple of months.
