I should have asked this from my PDoc, but I was too confused at that time to ask it then. I would have to wait till next month to see her again to ask this.

As far as I knew, I was having Anxiety, Depression and OCD, with Insomnia and GI problems as a result. I was on 30mg Lexapro and 1.5mg Risperidone.

This time when I was seeing her, I had several problems. I has missed an appointment and seen her after one and half month instead a month, because I have run out of money to make an appointment, because I have spent too much, because I was feeling so much empty inside. I had a relapse of my GI symptoms cascade. I have been feeling a disgust towards womankind that I was feeling an anger shortly after I feel attracted to seeing a female. I know that sounds ridiculous.

This time I was given Seroquel as a Mood Stabilizer. She said that I need a mood stabilizer, but nothing more on that. I'm now on the target dose of 200mg.

Except some contamination anxiety, my intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions are all very well under control. I can very well tolerate my emotions and do not feel that hurt inside. My mind is clearer. But there is this problem of running in dreams.

Is it that I need a mood stabilizer means I have bipolar, or are mood stabilizers given for major depression as well. I'm not sure about this. Someone please explain.
