In reply to Seroquel for depression/anxiety?, posted by Alan on April 5, 2000, at 8:09:51
Alan- I am bipolar w/OCD...and have had anxiety/panic attacks in past. Seroquel was given to me after I was feeling "paranoid" during a manic/mixed phase that put me in the hospital. I am on all ssri's you can think of...neurontin, depakote, luvox, zoloft, in addtion to klonopin. The seroquel, for me, has curbed "racing thoughts" about friends, family, etc...it somewhat "mellows me out" without stupefying me. I think it has been a lifesaver...my spells of depression are anywhere from momentary to at most, lasting a few days. It helps me "keep on truckin"...Stay with it. Taking it doesn't mean you're "psychotic"...Gesundheit!
