Let's see. I'm up to 800mg of Seroquel and 200mg of lithium. After a few days on it the weird thoughts and delusions have subsided. I'm still very tired but for the first time in years I'm feeling "normal" I feel like part of my family again. Still off of work for at least another week. The Nurse at my Dr's office called me everyday for the last couple if weeks to see how I'm doing with the Meds increase. I'm eternally grateful to my Family and Dr's office for fighting for me. I still know that there will be bad days. Hopefully no bad months or years again. There is hope. I just had to find the strength to be totally honest and open about how I felt. No more caffeine or alcohol. That was a tough one for me since I'm a musician and spend my weekends playing in bars.

That's great to hear, Jayv. There is hope indeed, once you find that strength to be honest, even if it seems impossible. Good luck on the sobriety-- that too is do-able. Sounds like you have a great support system.

All the best,
Randy
