Seroquel and anxiety and depression

Hi,
I have been on Cilift for anxiety and depression for 13 years. I also have hypothyroidism so am on Eltroxin every day. I have been on Urbanol for a while but it was not helping the extreme anxiety. I was prescribed Seroquel and have been on it for 3 weeks. My anxiety seems to be far worse, especially in the mornings but it does help me sleep at night. Stilnox sleeping tablets were not working. I have a pain in my chest, severe headaches, tingling feeling in my hands and a 'funny head'. I am on Yasmin as I have the Mirena but it does not work. The Mirena is still fitted. I have now read on this site (thank goodness I came across it) that both these cause extreme anxiety. I have now stopped the Seroquel and plan to stop the Yasmin and have the Mirena removed. If you have any similar experiences please comment.

Within the hour of taking it my heart started to beat very fast and breathing became difficult. Then I had difficulty speaking or forming words and had trouble walking. I grew increasingly tired and decided to lay down and had difficulty opening my eyes. I still couldn't talk so I decided to sleep it off. The next morning I still had trouble breathing and still do after a week or so of taking it. The doctors I have spoken to don't seem to think it's anything serious and don't care to document these reactions in my chart. The breathing problem occurs about twice a day and lasts about 1 and 1/2 hours. I was taking this medication for anxiety and depression.

Ive been on Seroquel for quite some time now, I asked my doctor too get me off. I am also on Lithium and Welbutrin. I have lost 45 pounds. Which isnt a horrible thing but with out Seroquel I am awake all the time. I stay up for days. After day three i break down and take a Seroquel and wake up with the worse body aches ever. It feels like someone beat me up with a metal bat and put me back in bed. If I don't sleep for at least 11 hours I cannot get up and function much less do any daily activities.It also makes my depression worse, on top of my lithium. The bodyaches I cannot do any more.

I am 17 years old and i am a recovering anorexic but i do need help with sleeping, anxiety, and depression and he put me on Seroquel... Reading all of these things makes me totally pissed of with the extreme weight gain!!! omg, help
