| Rating | Reason | Side Effects | Comments | Sex | Age | Time Taken and Dosage | Date Added | |
| 3 | Bipolar (cyclothymic) | Difficulties dealing with sugar, sweets, wine... Dumped emotions, passivity, zombie-like periods especially mornings | I don't really LIVE anymore, feel numb, lack of values, lack of desires... | M | 49 | 6 years 200 mg 1X D | 3/7/2012 | |
| 1 | Bipolar (cyclothymic) | serious withdrawal symptoms without any change in the medication. + nearly fell from the upper stairs after a huge vertigo in the night time (could have died from it) beginning of a diabetes | Use ONLY for schizophrenia and serious psychotic issues. the prescription of seroquel for bipolar disorders really seems unfair and partial to me. the docs never talk about the side effects! Beginning withdrawal, day 3, from 200 mg to 150 mg. COURAGE | M | 50 | 10 years 200 mg 1X D | 5/22/2012 | |
| 3 | Bipolar (cyclothymic) | extreme tiredness, stiffness, lack of emotions | Had to raise again to 200 mg. Summertime definitely not a good period for bipolars... | M | 50 | 12 years 200 mg 1X D | 8/31/2012 | |
| 3 | Bipolar (cyclothymic) | extreme tiredness, stiffness | the weight problem goes off with time passing. the fatigue doesn't. I am currently on a 225 mg at nighttime. Kind of habit now, I get used to it. Best way is to move swiftly with 25 mg pills, ea from 200 to 225 then back to 200, 175 etc... But all the "mental" side effects are weakening (vivid dreams, vision double, sore eyes...) | M | 53 | 8 years 225 mg 1X D | 11/13/2015 | |
