[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 220459, member: 3444"] I'm just curious what it is about Seroquel that the psychiatrist doesn't like compared to lithium? Did she say? (Oops... never mind, just read your reply to Jenn). I hate medication changes too. There's always the uncertainty, the waiting-to-see, the worry that it might not work or might make things worse. But like you said, she certainly does need something because she's not doing so great with her current treatment. I would have mixed feelings about waiting until after the holidays to start the medication change. Part of me would want to wait so that we're not rocking the boat during a special time of year. And part of me would want to hurry up and start the new medication so we can maybe see some progress before school starts back up. Would the psychiatrist have her wean completely off Seroquel first or gradually add lithium and then back off the Seroquel? [/QUOTE]
