Yeah he needs to.  Seroquil is a great mood stabilizer, anti depressant, and anti anxiety med but you need a good mood stabilizer too.  Something like Lamictal or LIthium or whatever we are all different.  It may reduce the mood swings to a more manageable level.

I don't know that there is a significant difference either.  What are the medicines you are taking now?
