I found this very interesting, especially since I am on it again and its working this time great:
70% remission and it is working with me.
I had side effects first time and this time none. :)

Seroquel or quetiapine Info. It is an anti psychotic drug but they also use it for bi polar, sleeping, mood swings AND GAD..... It works!

thats great news, but we cant all be going to our doctor and asking for such drugs as we are all differant and the same meds dont suit us all.
Im glad it works for you though, take advantage of it and live a little! hehe

Yes sorry not saying it will work for everyone but seems promising.
70% is a very high remission rate. Huge.
They only just starting to learn about these disorders we have.
Some can be fixed with no meds too.

Chop ,

In the Uk the family doctors will only prescribe according to the NICE guidelines and mood stabilizers like quetapine are not on it. These are reserved mainly for prescriptions from a psychiatrist and not many anxiety and panicky people get reviewed by a hospital psych very often so you may not see many members on this drug.

The guidelines are available on www.nomorepanic.co.uk for perusal of what is recommended as first line treatment.
