    I have been taking Seroquel for almost a year now, I'm 17 years old and have been diagnosed with bipolar depression. When I began taking Seroquel I weighed 98 lbs now I'm at 121. I take it at night therefore I sleep well but towards that end of the next day my ankles and knees begin to hurt quite severly.

    While using Seroquel i've been able to sleep, and my anxiety and depression havent been anything like they were. Although if im in a crisis my mood seems to go beyond the help of this medication. But its because of the medication I have less Crisis's.
