> I gained a lot of weight on Remeron unfortunately. Beta blockers make me feel really down especially combined with the Seroquel, I think. I can ask my Dr. about the Cogentin.Yes, those dang side effects! I think Cogentin might be worth a shot. But, again, I hope you can have a shot at Tegretol (carbamazapine) first, as it is used in unipolar and bipolar 1 and 2. Do you take Seroquel XR? Or the regular release? Because, Seroquel regular worked good for a bit, but it also seemed to make me both super anxious and depressed. But a smaller dose of XR was a nice, smooth sail through the day.
Have you ever tried amphetamine (Adderal, Dexedrine, Vyvanse)?
It WILL get better...I know you don't think that now...but it does. Hope..hope...hope...
