I've been on Seroquel XR 300 mg. for 15 months. I also take 2 x 50 mg quetiapine (generic Seroquel). It definitely helped with my anger issues. I almost never get angry anymore and when I do it's for 5 seconds. Then I can stop and rationalize why I'm angry, and ask myself if it will make any difference 5 years from now. Now, most of the time, I actually have the ability to choose to be angry or not.
Before Seroquel I had a lot of anger. It's been an issue my whole life. Some anger was always burning deep inside. Sometimes it was instant and I blurted it out.
I remember in March 2013 I woke up angry one Monday morning and stayed angry all day. I went to work, but I was scared to open my mouth because I had no idea what would come out. There was no rhyme or reason to my being mad. I was angry for no reason, but it was burning inside me.
I've had almost no issues with anger since I started on Seroquel.
I have a daughter who has always argued with me no matter what I said. Then I'd disagree and it would go back and forth. For 40 years. It was agonizing. I just spent Canadian Thanksgiving weekend with her and her family. She tried to suck me into an arguement several times. After a few words back and forth, I just looked at her and thought to myself that I was wasting my time and energy. I stopped talking. She didn't like that, but it suited me fine. We were arguing about the difference between cross breeding plants and GMOs. I decided it wasn't worth arguing about, so I let her have the last word. Otherwise, it would have gone on and on. That was a victory for me, despite what she thought.
To me, to have the ability to choose whether to be angry or not, even once, is a miracle.
Sorry this is so long.
