Answers:
i dont think i could live without my seroquel!. it is the only thing that gets me to sleep at night, of coarse it has other benefits as well for my bipolar II ultra rapid cycling and my borderline personality disorder!. i have been on so many different meds in the past 20 years and seroquel has been the best out of all of them to help me sleep!. i take 400mg at bedtime!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I personally do not like seroquel, it was supposed to help me sleep,but made me anxious, and made my mind foggy!. That being said it has worked for other people helping them sleep and clearing psychotic thoughts!. you do need to be careful because there is a risk of diabetes and weight gainWww@Answer-Health@Com
Seroquel has SERIOUS health risks, including diabetes!. My brother was on it for about 2 years and he developed sugar problems, as well as worsening mental stability!. Please weigh the risks before taking seroquel!. Talk it over with a medical doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I took 900mg for about 5 years and it really stopped the voices, but my paranoia was still raging during that time!. It also ruined my teeth because it made my mouth so dry!. 900mg is about the max you can take, so it really made me groggy and I would always think I was going to die because it depressed my breathing!. So, there was good and bad!. I am on Abilify now and it has less side effects!.

Seroquel has worked very well for my daughter although it caused her to gain weight!. Since she was feeling suicidal how she felt after going on the seroquel was a lot better!. And she was also put on Topomax to help with the side effects of the weight gain and she lost 30 pounds!. I definitely think that it was worth it and so does she even though she gained weight!. She's almost 16 and most teens are weight conscious!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I was only on a low dose for a few months and it is a horrible drug!. It gave me racing dreams when I could sleep which wasn't often I gained 15-20 lbs in those months and it made me feel like I was going nuttier than I was at the time!Www@Answer-Health@Com
