Hi everyone.
I've been having a weird experience with my increase in Seroquel. I was prescribed an extra 100mg (now at 300mg) since my mood has been cycling where my depressions have been very dark and hard to climb out of. Now, I'm getting these symptoms where I don't know if it is the Seroquel increase, or if this would be happening regardless. I've been getting these bursts of energy where everything seems to be going much faster in my head, and it's like a high, but not in a drug-induced way. More of like a hypomania, I can take on the world kind of thing. I thought I'd be more knocked out on the higher dose, but I'm not sedated at all.

I feel very "up" and elevated at times, but then I'll cycle into these depressions. I even tried to take klonopin to take the edge off, and it does absolutely nothing now. That is new. But then something will trigger me, and I'll fall to pieces... crying like crazy, have dangerous thoughts... I'm all over the place. I haven't noticed the "up" feeling in a while though. I've been on much higher doses of Seroquel in the past, and I was really sedated. So I can't figure out if these high feelings are from the Seroquel or if it is the beginning of some sort of episode.
