"i was diagnosed with bipolar ii when i was 15 years old and have used only cannabis since then to deal with it, but after years of cannabis abuse my symptoms started to become uncontrollable, i needed to smoke 2-3 grams of weed a day just to stay physically calm, and even then i had a lot of internal anxiety and no motivation. i could never quit smoking because if i did i couldn&#039;t sleep, couldn&#039;t eat, couldn&#039;t sit still, and couldn&#039;t feel any joy. i would always relapse if i quit. i started seroquel a week ago, and haven&#039;t had any weed since: i can eat normally, sleep 6-7 hours a night, and feel relatively happy. plus i have literally no side effects as far as i can tell. i haven&#039;t felt this good in years; it&#039;s all uphill from here!"
