Hi all, I don't know if this is the right forum or thread, but I need some good advice as I can't take much more.

I have been diagnosed as bi-polar, General Anxiety Disorder and also alcoholism. I also have an addictive personality. I have been like this since 1992 - 18 years of hell. I was recently prescribed Seroquel 100 mg per day. The medication used to treat my anxiety/panic attacks is Clomethiazole ( 6 x 192mg per day). The latter was previously known as Hemineverin and is rarely prescribed, yet I became addicted back in 92 (I was on 14 x 192 mh per day from time to time) and I have had them ever since. They work extremely well, until i run out. I then use alcohol - I thinnk this is known as self-medicating.

For years, the anxiety caused me to decome depressed - if I don't have my medication I can't go out! Without it I sweat profusely, become dis-orientated, hyperventialte and have racing thoughts.

So....... I would like anybody to

1. Explain how Seroquel works.
2. Is it similar to ante depressants (as in it takes x amount of weeks to get into your system)
3. If anybody has some good advice I would be pleased to hear it, as I am sick to death of being on pills just to go outside.

Many thanks
Martin
