Hi Helena

It's Really great to hear that you've got a diagnosis!

I take quetiapine too as I suffer with bpd! Have been on quetiapine for about 4 years & managed to get to a level where I am stable!

It's good to hear that what you thought was the end that it wasn't! Good for You!

Do you mind me asking what diagnosis they have given you?

Take Care

Mild form of bipolar, know as cyclothmia or unbipolar :)

Isn't it great when the professionals finally get the right diagnosis and start you on the right meds. I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder type II last November and now I am on the right drugs I feel stable for the first time in years, not over medicated, not under medicated, but just right. I tried Queitapine but it made me so drowsy in the mornings, I just couldn't wake up! Now on Lithium, Venlafaxine and Lamotrigine, and it's working a dream🙂 Hope your meds do the same.
