First, welcome and congratulations on getting sober!
I'm sorry you're going through such a hard time and can't get in to see your psychiatrist earlier.
25 mg of Quetiapine can actually be very sedating. It's possible this is why you're sleeping so much, or maybe it's depression. But I wouldn't tinker with your meds before you see your psychiatrist.
[A quick note on a previous suggestion re aspirin: it is also an anticoagulant, so if you have certain medical disorders you should not be taking it, I would consult your doctor first].
All I can say is to try to hang in there until your appointment and if it gets too bad you can consider calling a hotline or going to the ER.
I'd echo too someone else's suggestion to look for a therapist; therapy can be very helpful with bipolar disorder. I assume the VA would cover this?
Take care.
