I have been taken off Quetiapine to take it just when I am elated.

I went to see my consultant yesterday and continued to report my continued difficulty with Q. I told him that if I had a morning appointment I couldn't take Q in the evening or if I did I would know about it.

Anywaty he observed that my main problem is with depression rather than bipolar. He said that I should just take Q if I felt elated.

      Where did I say anything about feeling more or less positive - just taking quetiapine was screwing me up as I was having to choreograph my life. I am taking a smorgasbord of drugs which I won't go in to here.

    My Doc has been trying to et me on Quetiapine for 2 years, but i refuse, as i suffer from Sleep disorder, RBD, narcolepsy,  deppression, i am on clonazapam, and i was told that if i go onto Q, i might be knocked out, i am having enough trouble, as it is with my night terrors, where i cant get out of them, i dont want to stuck in them even longer, they wont give me anything for my narcolepsy, even though i am colapsing on the middle of the road, , not all the time, thankfully, but have done, cab be anywhere, and wont do anything about my RLS, which is torture, just keep saying go on Q, that aint got anything to do with the rest, keep sending me away, it is not them that is suffering, also had 30 appointmienys cancelled, at their leisure. P....ing me right off, next appointment 7-8 months time, which might be cancelled, ohh what a surprize that would be.
