hi pixie,
I take 50 mg of seroquel in the evening. it helps me sleep, and it helps keep me a little more stable during the day.

At that dose, it's not really an "anti-psychotic" but rather a "mood stabilizer". Has some mild anti-depressant and anti-anxiety effects.

Doses in the range of hundreds of mg of seroquel are more typical for acute psychosis or maintenence. These high doses are often very sedating, but interestingly, some people report that they feel more sedation at low doses than high doses.

What is your dose? How are you feeling? Do you see a doctor for psychopharmacology, also therapy?

hope you are doing peachy,
-Li
