Hi
I take Seroquel (quetiapine) but in higher doses to treat my conditions, been on it for over 20 years.
I am bipolar suffer from the same conditions you do. Yes, this med helps but you have to put your 2 cents in, meaning you have to work hard to pull through, we all wish there was a magical pill that would make everything go away.
Now, this antipsychotic off-label it is used to treat your conditions ocd, ptsd, insomnia and anxiety. I would say that for depression you need an anti-depressant.
Watch what you eat, exercise if you can and have blood work done regularly as this, as all antipsychotics mess with your blood sugar, hyperglycemia.
