Nothing really went wrong with the Seroquel. It just didn't do what it was prescribed for - to help alleviate anxiety. I've been able to keep my depression pretty much under control with SSRIs or Effexor (until it pooped out) but the anxiety that started up when I came off Effexor 6 months ago has been a killer.
Thanks for the information. My pdoc is hoping the Abilify might help with anxiety since Zyprexa really knocks it out. I think I have too much dopamine. All dopaminergic meds make me anxious (Wellbutrin, Provigil stimulants). Unfortunately I can't take Zyprexa on a regular basis because I am in recovery from bulimia and the zyprexa sends me right back to the refrigerator/pantry/grocery store.
