Thanks for suggestion. I will see what my doc has to say. The goal is to get off seroquel all together so this info will come in handy. I'm happy to say that my anxiety is lower today and I slept a night without a sleep aid... So I think I am nearly done with the worst of the med change... I hope.

> Sorry your having such a hard time. I was on seroquel but a a lower dosage. When I stopped my doctor gave me a medicine called zopiclone brand name imovane. I don't know if he'll let you take it but it's worth a try. It helped with insomnia and anxiety during the withdrawal stage of seroquel. It can't be taken for more than 1-2 weeks and it's at a dosage of 3-7mg in a tablet form at bedtime. Zopiclone is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic. It helped for me so I just wanted to pass the information along. Take care and I hope you feel better
