> > > > Not to rain on anyone's parade - but my doctor put me on Seroquel about 2-3 years ago for insomnia and within the first year I gained 100 pounds and am now pre-diabetic. Yeah it helps me sleep - but I've slept for 48 hours on a single dose. I can't wait to get off it.

> Thanks & I hope you are well... :-)I find that my eating gets out of control after I take it in the evenings. I am eating so much junk food and can't stop. I know that I have gained weight but won't weigh myself. What's up with this medication. It is helping me so much but I don't want to gain the weight. I'm fine during the day it's just after I take the medication I get out of control.
