[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 414162, member: 7916"] Hi, My son has had odd reactions to both Abilify and Seroquel. Abilify led to akathisia, which made him much more irritable and aggresive than usual. When he started Seroquel, I think we inceased the dose too fast and too much. He became very irritable and showed a lot of the classic symptoms of depression (loss of interest in everything, fatigue, etc). Once we lowered the dose again and started giving it in small doses several times a day, he evened out and is doing well. psychiatrist thinks these symptoms were caused by too much medication. A call to the psychiatrist seems like a good idea. It might take some more observation to determine why he is having this reaction. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
