Spouse taking Seroquel, Lithium, & Geodon. Auditory hallucinations & delusions began about a month ago with no prior history of mental illness (we've been together 14 years). He was however abusing oxycodone, oxycontin, xanax, soma, & ritalin. We took him to the ER 3 wks ago & he was put on risperdal 1mg x1 wk, then 2mg before going back to ER. With no past mental illness history & age ~40...

Has anyone experienced hallucinations while not being entirely depressed or manic? I have been diagnosed as BP II for almost 3 years and have never experienced hallucinations until now. I feel like I see things in my peripheral vision that are really not there. I have also occasionally heard things as well. Mood wise, I feel very stable. So this is completely alarming.

Since seroquel has such a huge effect on sleep and auditory hallucinations are often associated with that? Did they get worse when she started this med? Chemical imbalance of the brain is also often associated and hopefully these meds would even this out. I'd keep at making sure meds are just right but does she also do talk therapy? CBT, DBT and ACT therapy are all pretty helpful. https://my.clevelandclinic.

My doctor has recommended Seroquel for my insomnia. Since i am a parkinsons patient, I was wondering if this ,might make my parkinsons worse?

I accidentally took a seroquel after having been stabilized for some time with no symptomatology . I had awful hallucinations until I began accustomed to this drug. In your opinion should you have gone to the hospital. I thought I was taking one of the drugs that I am currently prescribed for a manic (late age onset) episode.

I have always assumed that I have had this experience since I was about 15 - having regular hallucinations before sleep or just after waking. The hallucinations have been varied from people talking / walking around the house to 'spiders' or writing on the wall /geomertric shapes that change and so on. However I googled it today and the examples I read all talked about sleep paralysis as an accompanying feature.

Recently stopped Cymbalta and started takig Seroquel XR (300 mg). I'm nearing the 10 day mark for my body to handle the drug better, but am having some issues that I can't determine if they are side effects of either going off Cymbalta or the Seroquel. Problems I'm having on a dily basis are: . Extremely lathargic - almost to the point of not being able to function. I take the dose at night . Very "achey". My joints and bones just hurt..to the extreme at times. .

Hi. I've been on Seroquel and then Seroquel XR for about two years now. I was initially prescribed it for bipolar mania, and the resultant insomnia. I have had panic attacks before prior to taking Seroquel, however never constantly, and never for no reason at all. I would have a panic attack after a traumatic event, or when I smoked pot as a teenager, but otherwise I never had them.

I Am currently taking 50mgs of seroquel at night, i was dropped from 400 mgs a night to that. ive been taking 50 mgs now for a month, now my insurance wont pay for it. im on it for my bipolar and for sleep. i cant sleep without it. am i going to go through withdrawals from this?

yesterday i was in the car with my mom and i started thinking imagine if everything started melting and i started imagining everything melting, also today in the morning when i woke up i looked over at my brother and i thought i saw him smiling like a crazy person. are these intrusive thoughts caused by my fear of going crazy?? or are these hallucinations and i really am going crazy??please respond i am really freakin out....

I was transfered from Seroquel to Risperdal years ago. Once the Seroquel was gone completely, for a couple of days I had minor flu like withdrawal symptoms and slept all day and felt run down. Then I was okay after that.

This drug has been a complete godsend for mania, insomnia, agitation and hallucinations, but I'm left with depression, no sex drive, intrusive thoughts and the paranoia has now returned. I also struggle with a racing heartbeat after taking it. I have become a recluse, and wonder if the outcome actually outweighs the problem in the first place. I am torn between insisting on changing medication, trying an antidepressant (which last time sent me into mania), or ditching it altogether.

I started on 600mg tegretol which made me feel better but the dose crept up to1400mg and was still not enough to stop the agitation, hallucinations and delusions. Then 100mg seroquel was added which initially reduced the hallucinations paranoia etc at first, but some symptoms have started to come back, again. Is it normal for medication which work for a while to lose their effectiveness, and what do you do when this happens?

DX with Cyclothymia and was given script for Effexor, then Seroquel and now Abilify. Dumped Seroquel down toilette and want to do the same with Abilify. Pristiq was the best and want to find MD who will put me on that.

You can try to google this, I only looked for hallucinations after liver transplant and came across this. Immediately after a liver transplant surgery some patients may become confused, agitated, and paranoid, with hallucinations and difficulty speaking. This is called delirium or acute brain dysfunction. Treatment of delirium after a liver transplant includes keeping you safe.

s still out as to whether it was caused by just the alcohol/benzo withdrawal, overdose quantities of seroquel, or the seroquel simply didn't allow my brain chemistry to re-normalize on its own, and it was brought on by physical activity after being down for a week. seroquel is an antipsychotic not a sedative, and it can be contraindicated in some individuals.

I have been recently diagnosed as Bipolar II although i already had one episode of hypomania about 4 years ago, although my psychiatrist was reluctant to give me a diagnosis because i was using a lot of class As especially uppers like MDMA and Coke. I am now not taking street drugs very often and have had my diagnosis.

The only thing Geodon did for me when I withdrew from it was give me violent hallucinations which landed me in the hospital. I was extremely skinny anyway because I'm on Topamax for alcohol abstinence; my dosage was increased; lost a little more which came back when I was put on Seroquel. Anyway, depending on what you were on the Geodon for, ask your doctor about going on Topamax. Weight loss is a side effect.

Doc has thrown in another new drug - Geodone - into my mix of Cymbalta, Lamictal, Lithium, and Seroquel XR. Had a bad reaction to Abilify so I am wondering if anyone has any experiences they can share. Thanks.

Can anyone describe to me your hallucinations while taking Seroquel? I'm interested in knowing what other people are seeing while on that med. I took it for a brief time several years ago, and I saw 3 angels.

those are the exact symptoms i had on Geodon myself. I was put on 40mg for two days then bumped up to 80mg which i barely tolerated for about a week and a half. the side effects were so severe that i was out of work for two days. when i finally got the pdoc to call me back i had him reduce me back to 40mg a day, which i took for two days, and then the last night i took it, my vision went... that was it for me.. didn't take another dose and had my doc put me back onto the seroquel.

She had hallucinations really bad and they were directly linked to that drug. We found out that Seroquel has an adverse effect on elderly people. It is widely prescribed...I can't for the life of me, understand why. Maybe there are a lot of Dr.s out there who have stock in the company that makes it.
