BarbaraCat,
I'll throw in my 2 cents about seroquel. I've used it from time to time to help with sleep and to settle down retractable anxiety or agitation. Very effective. I only need a dash (12.5 mg or less), so I don't know what it would feel like at a higher dose. But the only side effect I've noticed from it is being sedated if I'm not careful to take a small enough dose.
I have a friend who's doing pretty well on it as monotherapy for BP1!
I'm sorry you're feeling miserable. I understand the desire to not take prescription meds, especially with some of the problems you've had. I hope you find a good med combo that lets you get back to the things you love.
