The problem is she won't go to the doctor to get help. She was in the hospital mid January of this year, and the Dr. she first had put her on another medication, not sure what it was, then after she left the ER, another Dr. prescribed the Seroquel because he said it would help her depression and help her sleep. She visited our local Dr. right after she left the hospital, and won't go back. I talk with the Dr., but unless she goes in on her own, they can't really help her. The Dr. said it would take time. Some of the symptoms, physical ones like nausea, stomach problems, and irritability have gotten better in the last month or so. She is no longer a walking zombie like she was on the Seroquel, but is still having problems with sleeping and clearing her mind. The said the Seroquel would help clear her mind, but it actually made things worse from what I saw.
