I've been on seroquel 100mg before bed for one week now, it gets upped to 200 at night tomorrow and the following week 200mg then the same at night. On Saturday depression hit me pretty bad, then on Sunday evening I suddenly had lots of ideas for redecorating my house, over the last 2 days I have cleared out a room used for storing crap and cleaned the whole place to shine. Is this normal on seroquel (recently diagnosed bipolar type 2 with psychotic features) I'm very twitchy and oddly have a huge appetite. I usually have problems with food, I feel the need to take charge of things and am non stop doing things and I have been posting a lot on political views and such on Facebook which is quite out of character for me. My gf told me she thought I was manic and I argued for 2 hours I wasn't (as I continued to scrub at a small stain on my dresser that was driving me crazy. The pdoc told me to expect depression from these at which point she would adjust my meds. I feel like I'm all of a sudden smarter, especially so much more than anyone else and I'm the only person that can see how things should be done.
Yeah so I reckon hypomania, it's not bad though I'm enjoying getting things done but I am very easily annoyed.
As asked by pdoc I haven't touched cannabis or alcohol since starting.
I have a wedding to attend in a fortnight and don't want to be twitchy so if it goes on or gets worse I'll call the doc.
Anyone got any feedback? Would be much appreciated, really wasn't expecting to feel this up. I really want a coffee but I think I have enough energy now lol
