Hi everyone-

You can call me Blue. I'm a social worker in my late twenties, and over the course of nine years my diagnoses fluctuated from major depressive disorder, to BP II, to depression/SAD, and back to BP II. I just started taking Seroquel again, after two years of my psychiatrist trying different medication combinations (to no avail). I'm hopeful, but I don't want to be too hopeful, in case the Seroquel doesn't click with my brain. I'd even be grateful for that "Seroquel Fog" if it stopped the depression and irritability. I kind of feel fractured as a person-as most people do not know I have Bipolar at all (if I tell people, I tell them it is depression). My husband has been more supportive than I could ask, but I don't want him to be the only person I can be "whole" with. I've read many of your introductions, and resonated with them. I feel that a place like this is what I've been searching for.
