I might have missed the point but if you're on Seroquel - stay on it.
The posters here are all in the same direction, and I sure agree. Just let's take this thing a bit further on the safe side, as to the symptoms you described might have been agrravated my a mixed bipolar II state (irritable and that). Therefore, I would withhold Paxil until we exclude that.
As for the benzodiazepines, blueberry made a good point here concerning depression, hence Valium and Ativan might be good alternatives. Xanax should wait for the 2nd tier as it may lead to disinhibition which might not be very beneficial to hypothetical mixed bipolarity.
There have been great ideas on mood stabilizers here as well, but let's take a pill at a time (-:
Cheers!
