Hi dear .

I had gone through your query .

Quitiapine is anti psychotic and help as sedative .

Mirtazapine is anti depressant and it elevated your sad mood.

If you have mood variability in spite of these then need to add mood stabilizer.

Mood stabilizer like sodium valporate / olanzapine / lithium / lamotrigine etc can help.

Choice of medicines depend upon clinical presentation .

You have to take advise from your treating doctor before taking this medicines.

If you have still query then feel free to ask .
Happy to help you further .

Thank you .
