I have been on Seroquel for about 3 years after alot of therapy and adjusting to stressful situations I was having a problem with sleep and supposedly depression and anxiety. I have suffered with borderline personality discorder since I was 19, but every once in a while it becomes intensified. After alot of therapy and docters trying to regulate what I should be on including an antidepressant and something to help me with sleep , they came up with Seroquel.... 100 milligrams at first then took me down to 50 m.g... It has been helping a great deal, but I feel I can't fall asleep with out it. I also take the seroquel along with Remron 30 mg, and try to talk to a psychotherapist 1 time a month.
I am afraid to try anything else because I have tried alot of antidepressants and they have not worked that well along with the therapy
I have been ocassionally expriencing itching and nite mostly but also during the day I thought my skin was dry and very sensitive so I took a medicine for the itching a couple times... and that did not seem to help. I changed my laundry detergent and that helped a little.... So now I'm noticing my vision in the left eye is very abnormal and I work for an eye docter. He had to refer me to an opthamologist one of the best, where he found out that I had cataracts ! AND i JUST TURNED 40, AND i MAY HAVE ONE IN THE RIGHT EYE. Do I get off this medication and try something else or what? what else will work just as good with out the side affects>?
