I've been on Seroquel for about 5-6 weeks now and it's making me crazy irritable and irrational.
The first few times it was only about an hour after taking it ( 10pm ) I was so bad one night I was afraid to leave the sofa to go to bed because I felt if I stood up I'd throw my phone at the tv screen. So I sat and dug my fingers into my arms until the pain over took the feeling of wanting to break something.

I told p-doc last week and he suggested it may just be a breakthrough / side effect and to give it another 3 weeks and then if no improvement to increase the dose to 200mg.

I'm concerned that this might only result in an increase of that feeling ...

The last couple of days it's started to hit Around 4pm. It only lasts about an hour or so but my poor husband and son are really feeling the brunt of me snapping at them for no reason and I feel like I want to smash and break things !

Has anyone else experienced this side effect and does it get worse with higher doses ?

I'm afraid of what I'll do if it got any worse.
I'm not normally violent in anyway and I'm taking the seroquel to treat a bipolar depressive episode.
