| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR SEROQUEL | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 5 | sleep | sleep 18 hours a day | its the best if you need sleep | M | 18 | 18 years | 6/10/2006 | 5 | Bipolar | Severe weight gain. Sedation, without Seroquel I cannot sleep. That being said, it is not a sleep aid. I have terrible real life like nightmares constantly. Constipation. | At this point I am still worried about the Tardive Dyskinesia. Almost 20 years. But for my situation, It is worth the risk for the benefits. I have to be careful due to being up many times as night as it does make me very dizzy. It is not for everyone. I would personally prefer it over the older Trazodone or Klonopin which really knock me out and don't fully treat the bipolar. | F | 48 | 19 years 450mg | 8/3/2019 | 1 | For sleep | Extreme weight gain..heightened depression..heightened suicidal thoughts.. extreme anxiety.. anti social.. irritability.. tired all the time.. constipation.. heart attack.. stroke.. kidney disease.. high blood pressure on and on and on | Very dangerous drug that should not be given to anybody | F | 62 | 21 years 100mg | 2/23/2020 | 1 | Teleporter Psychosis | Couldnt float in space anymore, sunk. | M | 459 years | 3/14/2005 | 1 | mild insomnia+wierd dreams (voices) | Used it for MILD insomnia (I could sleep without anything). Used it like a fool for 2 years. The initial reason was MILD GABAergic damage and proper therapy would have been: 1) use antihistamine to help with sleep (seldomly) 2) wait for one year for brain to heal 3) use neurologist and use something that could help GABA heal I was able to work all the time and worked as scientist before seroquel (and bad doc and didn't know anthing about meds) ruined my life. | Seroquel is neuroleptic (antipsychotic) drug. Neuroleptic drugs slowly kill you and it is harder and harder to withdraw (sleep): 1) never start antipsychotics or antidepressants 2) people typically die in 10 years or so 3) brain damage and its harder and harder to sleep without quetiapine 4) if you have used seroquel for longer periods DO NOT ABRUPTLY STOP If you have recently started and you are using it for mild symptoms (insomnia?) => go to neurologist specialized for sleep ASAP Use benzos for sleep or maybe certain antidepressants but use a GOOD doctor you can trust because there are pitfalls in many medications used for sleep. (in general you cannot use anything for longer periods for sleep without serious side-effects.) Use natural methods for sleep: aerobic exercise, glycine 3-5g, tryptophan, magnesium, l-arginine, beetroot, colostrum, good bed and sleeping place etc. | M | 30 | 999 years 400 MG 1X day | 1/10/2011 |
