Hi everyone
So I'm new here and didn't know if I was posting this in the correct place. I have bipolar disorder and I take quetiapine (seroquel in America) and duloxetine. I have smoked weed over the years and know this is ok (although sadly massively dulled) with my meds. I have tried talking with my psychiatrist about other drug use as quite often when I am in a manic phase I will take any drugs offered to me with no thoughts of the consequences. All he keeps saying is that I shouldn't take any other drugs with my meds. This is really frustrating me as I am fully aware of that and when I am well I only smoke weed now but when I am manic I'll literally take anything without even asking what it is sometimes. My partner has had to take me to A and E before just because he doesn't know if the drug mix I have taken is ok and I'm struggling to get any information from my doctor. So I basically wanted to know if anyone knows what drugs are potentially dangerous with my medication so we both know when to worry and when I need to just sleep it off?
