Honestly, no. I have Bipolar 1 with psychotic features. So my use of Seroquel was for mania and psychosis. While it did help to sedate me, it did not take the mania away. Best I can describe it is like a sedated mania. Feels like a wild horse that is physically tied down. I don't think I have the best luck with meds tho, so keep that in mind.

That so good that you are seeking out that help with your therapist!! I worked a lot on anxiety and panic attacks on my own, and in group therapy. I still get anxious but I know how to interupt a panic attack now, and I can keep a fairly good handle on anxiety. When I am manic that's a little harder, but it's definitely something that I think can be managed with therapy and skill outside of meds. Just takes a lot of patience and time. Yoga is something else you might want to look into. Mindfulness has shown great success for so many people too. The first person to mention mindfulness to me was my pdoc.

If you look up Jon Kabot Zinn, he has a lot of mindfulness videos on YouTube which are great. I like it because it's something I can practice anytime anywhere. It has helped with bipolar as well as anxiety and just plain perspective.
