Hyperactive, Irritable. Taking Epilum, Seroqual Mood Stabilizers, Stopped. Withdrawal Symptoms?

Hi. I would really appreciate if some one could he ll me with this. I used to be on a lot of mood stabilizers but my doctor felt I was on too much of the same things. Since November last year I came off 800mg of Epilum and 100mg of Seroqual. My doctor says I m still irritable and hyperactive because of the withdrawal. After this time period is it still possible? Many thanks

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
Withdrawal symptoms from november to january is a bit unlikely. If you are having bipolar mood disorder, then you are prone to develop anxiety disorder as well. You should visit your psychiatrist and insist him to add up a benzodiazepines untill you recover with your symptoms. CBT will also help you a lot.
Take proper diet and plenty of exercise.
