I had a conversation with my doctor saying the Seroquel was probably causing weight gain. This all stemmed from the reactions received from people I haven’t seen in a while!

So, I brought it up during my doctor visit thinking he would suggest another medication which wouldn’t have the weight gain side effect. He went on to tell me, while reviewing my chart, that I’ve only gained about five lbs in six months!! I took the Seroquel because it was excellent with helping me sleep at night. He went on to state the medication is NOT ONLY for my insomnia! Then raised his eyebrows ....

Long story short, I just realized I have bipolar disorder! I went about five days without taking it at night and my mood has been ALL OVER THE PLACE (according to my girlfriend).

It sucks to know I’m bipolar! Guess it isn’t the end of the world!!! [emoji21][emoji21][emoji21][emoji21]
