 5  gifted I heard that president Bush's airforce one pilot takes seroquel. It really help's him fly the world's most important man safely, across the globe. He keeps it in his side pocket, and as soon as he's stat's seeing things he pops a few hundred mg's. Definitely a wicked drug, I'd reccomend it for the entire human race. If everyone took it, there'd be no wars because everyone would be sleeping or eatting all the time. I think scientists should try to geneticaly engineer this molecule into the human body permanently. It makes average people feel like their alive for once in their life. Take it before dinner, take it while with friends, and give some to the kids. You know serouqel will only make them better, and never worse. Props to astrazeneca and teh monkies which got the first chance to test it out. M 19

 5  Insomnia Slight dizziness in the morning, if i am not able to get 8 full hours of sleep. I also experience vivid dreams - but this is okay, kinda like this effect. :) I was prescribed seroquel mainly to counter the side effects of zoloft or xanax xr which is insomnia. When i started taking these two drugs, i would wake up around 3 or 4 am and very anxious and restless. The moment i took seroquel, i am able to sleep well without disturbances. M 23

 5  schizoaffective disorder/bipolar First few months, very tired; but that passed, and now I feel very well with minimal side effects. I have been prescribed many different antipsychotics, and I feel that Seroquel is the best and safest so far. M 66

 4  Bipolar Anyone who has had restless leg issues with seroquel have your doctor prescribe a low dose of requip and it will knock it right out. It is due to the dopamine blockade to which it is the weakest binding compared to others in its clas. This is actually not commom w/ seroquel but requip will get rid of it! F 42

 4  Anxiety, depression Lethargy, restless legs Ive recently cut my dose of seroquel down to 25mg from 50mg, and we cut my Remeron in half from 60mg to 30mg. It had to be done because i simply could not function on the higher doses. Would sleep for 10-12 hrs and still have a really hard time getting out of bed and leaving my house. So far so good on the smaller doses. M

 3  ocd drowsiness and insomnia at the same time, severe restless leg syndrome took only one dose in my life, which was larger than what the doctor prescribed. first effect noticed was an euphoric calm-like feeling after which a state of intense drowsiness followed, also accompanied by insomnia and restless leg syndrome. it was a horrible state as i couldn't do anything because of the drowsiness but couldn't sleep either.
