"seroquel makes me feel like i&#039;m on a level playing field again.  i don&#039;t feel like my thinking&#039;s distorted and i don&#039;t cry uncontrollably like i have all of my life.  i have gained weight but i&#039;m fixing to start taking topamax to counteract that.  if the topamax doesn&#039;t work i will still continue to take seroquel.  i rather gain weight and be able to cope with life 100% better than i did before."
