Seroquel Bipolar Disorder
Seroquel is used to treat bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder, still
frequently referred to as manic depression, is a mood disorder marked by
episodes of clinically significant impairment due to mania or depression.
Bipolar disorder is proposed to be a serious medical illness that
affects millions of people.
Bipolar disorder typically develops in early
adulthood, but some people develop symptoms as children or late in
life.
It is often not considered an illness, and people may suffer for
years before it is properly diagnosed and treated.
Like heart disease and
diabetes, Bipolar disorder is a long-term illness that must be carefully managed
throughout a person's life. Many believe, however, that a medical
conceptualization of these mood problems is not the most appropriate, and that
such problems can instead be seen as due to differences in temperament which can
become extreme under stress.
| Antipsychotic drugs like Seroquel (quetiapine fumarate) have been found to cause extremely dangerous side effects, including diabetes and hypoglycemia. In some cases, these side effects have resulted in death.

One sufferer of Bipolar disorder wrote: "Manic-depression distorts moods and
thoughts, incites dreadful behaviors, destroys the basis of rational thought,
and too often erodes the desire and will to live.
It is an illness that
is biological in its origins, yet one that feels psychological in the experience
of it; an illness that is unique in conferring advantage and pleasure, yet one
that brings in its wake almost unendurable suffering and, not infrequently,
suicide.
"I am fortunate that I have not died from my illness, fortunate
in having received the best medical care available, and fortunate of having the
friends, colleagues, and family that I do."
To that point, there are currently three forms of bipolar disorder outlined
by the DSM-IV-TR and generally accepted within the medical community: Bipolar I,
Bipolar II, and Cyclothymia.
Like many disorders involving brain
chemistry, bipolar disorder is still under investigation, and symptoms may vary
substantially from person to person.
Usually, symptoms include periods of
euphoria, which alternate with periods of severe depression.
In most
cases, periods of mood stability complement these periods of instability.
