I had a nightmare last Friday which triggered somehow my childhood OCD which I thought was gone. It's characterized by the need to be clean and trichotillomania. My pdoc added Seroquel 150mg to the mix of meds. It's done wonders already for the OCD, especially the compulsive hair/eyelash pulling or trichotillomania, but I have been having suicidal thoughts while at the same time not dissociating as much as I have PTSD with dissociation. It really is helping, but today I drove to my mom's house, gave her my dog, and told her I was going to go home and hang myself because life is just too much. I feel better now. But I'm wondering if it's from starting a new medication or if it's just my illness. I've also been getting tremors and weakness in my arms and hands. Anybody have this on Seroquel? I want to keep taking it. I just don't want anymore suicidal thoughts, and if I tell my pdoc, he will take me off of Seroquel right away. Should I give it a week? I read it takes a full week to start working for bipolar depression.
