Hi Barb,
Don't know if you were following another thread or if it still is here; but it was about Seroquel (and the next day blues).
I've been taking it occassionally for sleep (1/4 of 25mg) and normally wake up off balance and a bit depressed. It helps with the sleep tho'. There were a few others experiencing what I experienced.
It's all individual as you know.
KatiaHi Dalilah,
> How is it with the Seroquel? I was taking Ambien for insomnia and stopped because of tolerance and potential exacerbation of depression. I still have problems sleeping and wonder if Seroquel might help since it's also an anti-psychotic and may benefit my BP condition.
>
> Do you feel hung over from it in the morning? Any motor disturbances? Dry mouth? Weight gain? Do you think it benefits the BP or is it mainly a sleep aid? Do you know if it interferes with stage IV sleep? I've got fibromyalgia and anything that affects deep sleep is a no-no. Anything other s/e? Thanks for any info on this. - Barbara
