I have been taking Seroquel since 1997 when i was first diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder.  Consequently, I have experienced most of the side effects of this medication.  I was never told about these side effects until I spoke with my doctor after seeing a commercial relating all the negative, dangerous side effects.

Then I began researching Seroquel and found the FDA reported side effects website.  As read the very long list of reports, I kept finding things I had gone through and never knew why.  Suddenly. I had some answers.

That was 3 years ago and I'm finally being weaned off the drug and that's only because I have a new doctor.  Unfortunately, it is hard to get off the drug because it does control my symptoms somewhat and it helps in specific areas.  It's a catch 22 situation.  I want my Bipolar controlled, but i don't want the dangerous side effects.

And here's the ironic thing, as far as I know Seroquel is the most effective anti--psychotic on the market to treat Bipolar
