 5  Bipolar,insomnia,anxiety drowsiness, dry mouth, agitation This drug is great. It relaxes both my body and mind. I barely gained any weight it and it has completely turned my life around. I have made so many gains since I started taking seroquel. I have a great job and I'm doing better at university, and I am an overall happier person. 2 years

 3  Schizoaffective Disorder Extreme tiredness, weight gain, dulled emotions, memory and concentration problems This drug worked like a dream initially but wore off after about a year when the dosage decreased very slightly. The side effects of this drug are awful, truly life-changing in a negative way. After about half an hour of taking it you become very sleepy and must go to bed. You get off to sleep very quickly. In the morning it is very hard to get up and wake up even. My mum was waking me up several times - I would sleep through alarms and would just go back to sleep without even knowing. I would get up late, I missed a lot of college. I could not cry and wasn't laughing as much on this drug - surpressed emotions. I could not concentrate on work and my memory was bad. Hard to read large chunks of text. On coming off this drug I have become more alert, my emotions have returned and I am no longer tired. Never again will I touch this poison. 20 1.5 years

 1  insomnia MAJOR weight gain(22 pounds in 2 1/2 months!) Unreal hunger. Zero energy. Constant hungover feeling. Severe dry mouth. Swelling in hands and legs. Restless legs. Nightmares. I could go on and on. Worst drug I have ever been on. With all the side effects this drug seems to cause people...why the hell is it even prescribed in the first place? I am off of it now and sleeping crappy again, but I'll take that over those side effects anyday! 40 2.5 months
