seroquel

[Ambien addict]

Yeah its almost same for me as 50mg dose that's the max you can go for sleep use afaik. It keeps me knocked for like 8 hours slightly less than the full dose.

How fast does 12.5 knock you out?

Did it make you starving, and more depressed?

It takes a more or less the same time 20-40 minutes. But the effect is much less strong.

Starving? The only symptom I have it with is waking up is so damn hard and these meds make my hand like tremble a lot

Thanks. wondering if I can take it with my benzos? I am freaking out. Need something to calm down to sleep.

I split all of my pills with a pill splitter. Maybe I will take a half of a 12.5, and see if It will help me sleep. Thanks. Having a horrible night of axiety!

Don't mix things without a doctor's approval.

I would take 50mg to sleep if you are in a crisis. Not sure how much you were prescribed. If it doesn't work then try with benzos

Thank you. I'm sorry for all of the questions. I am just afraid of this med!

I do this all night, every night. I am supposed to take a 25 mg. Doc knows I am on benzos, but not how much. Supposed to take 25 mgs to sleep. But because of my withdrawls from everything else, I can't physically eat, or lie down until I have taken a benzo to relax throat muscles. It's awful...don't want to take the Seroquel, and want to eat, and can't. And I can't stop pacing and typing until the benzo! This is why I want to CBT! Wanted to try sometning different tonight.

I was prescribed 50mg for sleep, and it also works for psychosis. I don't take it continuously now. Even 12.5 mg works for me, but you will build tolerance quickly if you take it daily

How do you get to 12.5 mg? Are you cutting pills in half? And op was saying something about 6.25mg which is half of yours. I'm on 50 and feel like a zombie, one of the reasons I want to ctb.

It's alright. Prolly see your psychiatrist man sounds like it could help. But those symptoms will go away eventually

Yeah, it's basically 1/4th of my 50mg tablet. It's really tiny af, but it works. I stopped taking it for those reasons too.

I take it only when I don't get sleep naturally, have been doing that for 1–2 months now. I'm also not seeing my doc. I'm trying to get the max with what I have. I saw some people taking low as that on Reddit, then started trying it myself

I used to do that and it was enough

You're lucky that you're able to reduce it and take as needed, wish I could do that. If I don't take it , my body shakes and panic soars. I want to taper off so badly but i don't think I can without killing myself. Also want to die whilst taking it, so basically stuck. Hopefully you won't need to take it all anymore and you can be free from the poison. Seroquel has many nasty effects on the body, though this is a suicide forum so perhaps it doesn't matter. I hate psychiatry so much.

I'm on fucking 400mg of it and it's so awful, Ive gained 30lbs in like 10 months and it gives me chronic dry mouth which makes it hard to eat swallow and feels like I'm suffocating. Was perscribed another med to help with that. Yay more meds. When I first started i was on 50mg then 100mg then 150mg etc. I found it was more sedating on the lower dose. It's an awful med yet I've tried everything else. I want to go off everything but fear I may be worse. My med lady doesn't care. Making a fortune on me alone. Must be nice to be normal and not need meds.

You can slowly taper it off i don't think you wanna do though. My psychotic symptoms came back but that's how im managing since i hate the side effects.

It's a bit hard initially but antidepressants were worse than this. I have gone twice off it now.

As long you aren't using it continuously you can do on and off i think but my sleep schedule is all over the place.

Sorry about your sleep schedule. We take sleep for granted as a natural bodily function until it gets screwed up and then it's hell.
I've been injured from psych meds so my brain is super sensitive to everything, it's really tragic and terrible. No one believes me either and there's no way of treating it. I was on Effexor originally.

 

[onmywaytothebusstop]

did you take it for sleep? Did it help?

does it knock you out?

I sleep very well on 200mg but not everyone does.

Yeah its almost same for me as 50mg dose that's the max you can go for sleep use afaik. It keeps me knocked for like 8 hours slightly less than the full dose.

Naah, you can go higher for sleep. It all depends on the person. I take 200mg
