Frustrating: It's very frustrating to feel well after a medication change, then not. Many things can influence this such as social stress, medical problems, relationship issues. In addition to medication, you may want to think about counseling, which has been shown to improve the effects of antidepressants. Patience, collaboration with your physician, and counseling are all important. Don't give up hope!

Seroquel-XR: I am not sure what other medications u r taking along with the seroquel, (quetiapine) but certainly recommend discussing with your prescribing doc. All available options regarding dose adjustments or supplementing antidepressant medications.
