Hi Jeroen,Close family member was put on fairly big dose Abilfy, Risperdal, and Seroquel, one after another. Dont remember exact doses but is currently on 300mg seraquel and 1250 depakote daily.
I was rereading your post. While I can't find any side effect in my reading describing anxiety and paranoia, I sure saw it in him. (Not on Seroquel, but on Abilify AND Risperdal). It got so bad he could not be in the next grocery isle and at the mall, you'd have to stay within a couple feet of him.
We had Pdoc take him off those and asked for mildest antipsych. He went on Seroquel and, along with Depakote gets along pretty well. Still a little afraid of dark, etc. but always been that way. Your Pdoc knows you best and I'm sure is carefully monitoring your meds, but just thought I'd share our experience with those meds. Hope it helps.
