"This is madness, I tell you". Well said, I agree. I empathize with you very much. I'm not sure there is any more frustrating thing to happen in life than having weirdness with drugs, especially when they aren't working very well to begin with.
It sounds to me like it might be a good idea to see the doc ASAP and start from scratch. If Depakote and Seroquel aren't helping very much, then I see no sense at all in continuing with them. There is always a much better choice that will turn out to be a superior match for you. Ditch the inferior ones, keep searching for superior ones. Sampling, probing, trial and error, it's the only way.
If your doc is unwilling or unavailable, it also might be a good idea to invest the time and trouble to find a more compatible doc.
In the meantime, I do empathisize with you. Hang in there. I know you are doing the best you can, you just need a doctor who will do the same.
I'm wishing you a smooth day.
John
