Hi there. I haven't been around for a long time but I've used Mumsnet for a years and it seems strange that my life suddenly no longer resembles what it once did. I have been very depressed for months and I can't quite even pinpoint where it began. My marriage broke down and I am now unable to cope with anything - I can't even take care of my children so I feel like a cr@p mum and my relatives are all judging me to be an uncaring mother I feel very numb about everything, have the feeling I don't care what happens to me and I can't sleep properly unless I self-harm which I do with sharp razor blades. I saw a psychiatrist the other day and she thinks I need anti-depressants but also something to control my moods as I feel the need to walk and walk and walk and when I look in the mirror I see someone else, and have the feeling that I am somehow watching myself do things but it's not really me.
Has anyone else experienced any of this and has anyone else been prescribed quetiapine?
