Yesterday was a very odd day. As most of you know, I rarely leave my bedroom, let alone my house. My husband wanted to go shopping and go out for dinner and I did, without fuss, and it was excellent. But many things happened that, prior to the Seroquel, would have had me shut up in my bedroom for a long time. It seemed that the world was out there hitting every one of my buttons and I was able to cope!!! I’m SO proud!

Congrats, and the reward of the feeling after you go out and do those things is the best feeling ever.

(((((hugs to all))))) thank you! I used to fly across the world with two toddlers in tow and not think a thing of it, I was very independent and I've been stuck in my bedroom now for about 3 years. I'm so happy that finally a med has worked! Ativan helped me cope, but not fully function.

Yesterday I was able to assess the situations, come up with solutions without breaking down!

What an awesome accomplishment ((((( AAAAA )))))!!!

Now you have something positive to hold onto and remember when other things may give you some problems....you can say..."hey, I went out shopping and to dinner that day and nothing bad happened".

Way to go woman!

(((((yellowapple22))))) It's taken 18 years to find the right medication! Hopefully it won't take that long for you!

I went out again yesterday!!! I like this!

Thank you all for all of your support!
