i take it once a day, just before bed. i would recommend starting on 25 mg, and judge over the next few weeks whether you need more or less. someone in here said they take it in 7.5 mg. ive taken as high as 100mg, and actually felt less groggy on that than i did when with 25.
but yes, to make a long story short, every med affects everyone differently. i assure you seroquel will calm you down, but you will have to test for the dosage.
and yes, whatever chemical makes you race with anxiety, it nails, i mean, it nails it! Seroquel is a gift from God. now i will say it makes me groggy throughout the day, which i hate, but i hate anxiety more. it is worth it to me.
one last thing about seroquel: you will feel its effects only minutes after you take it, but it will take 2-3 weeks for your body to get used to it. for example, my mouth was very dry for 2-3 weeks, now its not.
